Directions:
Frost your cupcake with chocolate frosting.
Add 2 whoppers on the top of the cupcake for the cheeks
Add 2 candy eyes above the cheeks.
Add 2 ears at the top of the head, above the eyes using brown Reese’s Pieces.
Sprinkle the top of the cupcake with chocolate jimmies. Gently shake off loose jimmies.
Gently press down the jimmies under the cheeks before you add the teeth.
Use white sparkle gel to draw two teeth onto the groundhog.
Place your groundhog onto a bed of green grass. To make grass, pour about 3/4 cup of coconut flakes into a sealable bag. Add a few drops of green food coloring and about 1 teaspoon water. Seal the bag and knead the coconut until the desired color is reached. You may need to add a little bit more color or water depending on your desired outcome.
