2tsp vanilla extract

1 large piping bag with small star tip

black cupcake liners. In a medium bowl add the cake mix, butter,

milk and vanilla extract and stir until combined. Fill cupcake

liners 3/4 of the way. Bake in the oven for about 21 minutes.

Cool completely before frosting.

mixer combine the butter, powdered sugar, heavy whipping cream

and vanilla and mix on a medium speed until combined and smooth.

into the piping bag with the small star tip. Mix a few drops of

your red food coloring into the remaining frosting. Scoop that

into the piping bag with the large star.

Start frosting the cupcakes with the red frosting. Using the

white frosting pipe dollops of frosting onto the bottom of

the white of the red frosting to make the rim of the Santa

hat and pipe a dollop of white frosting up top for the white

ball of the Santa hat. Push to ears (the Oreo) into the sides

of the hat. Place 2 holly leaf sprinkles and 3 red ball sprinkles
