Ingredients
- 6 - prepared cupcakes
- 1 can - vanilla frosting
- food coloring
- round colored sprinkles or skittles
- Sour Patch Kids Candy
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.
