chuckle Adorable Scarecrow Cookies

These are just so cute!


What you'll need: 2 bags COOKIES&[TM] SNICKERS® Brand FUN SIZE® Bars, unwrapped
1 bag TWIX® Brand Caramel Cookie FUN SIZE® Bars, unwrapped
1 bag M&M'S® Brand Peanut Butter Chocolate Candies for Halloween or M&M'S® Brand Milk Chocolate Candies for Halloween
1 bag SNICKERS® Brand FUN SIZE® Bars, unwrapped and chopped
1 18.25-oz. box yellow cake mix
1 16-oz. can vanilla frosting
6 shredded wheat biscuits
1 tube brown decorator's icing
24 paper cupcake liners
2 regular size cupcake pans


What to do:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line the cupcake pans with the paper cupcake liners.
Prepare yellow cake mix according to the package instructions.
Fold the chopped SNICKERS® Brand FUN SIZE® Bars into the batter before transferring it to the cupcake pans. Bake for 18-21 minutes. Remove from oven, transfer to a wire rack, and let cool completely.
Tint the vanilla frosting beige by blending it with a tablespoon of brown decorator's icing. Spread the beige frosting on top of a cupcake.
To decorate the cupcakes, use the photograph as a guide:


Hats: Place a COOKIES&[TM] SNICKERS® Brand FUN SIZE® Bar at the top of each cupcake, and top with TWIX® Brand Caramel Cookie FUN SIZE® Bars to resemble the rim on the hat.
Hair & Neck: Arrange strands of shredded wheat under the hat and around the neck.
Face: Use M&M'S® Brand Peanut Chocolate Candies for Halloween for the eyes and nose. Create the mouth with the remaining brown decorator's frosting.


Tip: Consider using cut licorice laces, snipped STARBURST® Fruit Chews or shredded coconut instead of shredded wheat biscuits for the "hair".
Makes 24 cupcakes.
