Ingredients

  • 6 Prepared Cupcakes unfrosted
  • 1 can Vanilla Frosting
  • Food Coloring
  • Sour Patch Kids Candy
  • 6 Mini Clear Plastic Cups 1 ounce
  • Food Writer Marker black
  • Round Colored Sprinkles or Skittles about ¼ inch in size

Instructions

  • Color part of the frosting purple and part of the frosting green.
  • Frost 3 cupcakes each with the purple and green frosting.
  • Draw 2 little alien eyes on 6 of the sour patch kids and stick one in the center of each cupcake. Press them into the frosting a little bit so they stand upright.
  • Put a little cup over each alien and press it into the frosting just a little bit so it looks like he’s inside the top of the space ship.
  • Put 6 of the ball sprinkles/candy in the frosting around the edge of the cupcakes. Space them apart equally so they look like the lights on the UFO’s.
