Instructions

1. Bake a batch of chocolate cupcakes in red cupcake lines.
2. Make a batch of our Best Buttercream Frosting.   Put aside 1/4 of the frosting.  You’ll use this white batch for the “fur” on the Santa Hat.  Tint the rest of the frosting red 
3. Twist open the Mini Oreos and remove the Oreo filling.  
4. Using a pastry bag and a Wilton 1M frosting tip, swirl on some red Best Buttercream Frosting – this is the “hat”.
5. Fill a decorating bag with the white Best Buttercream Frosting and a Wilton #22 Star Decorating Tip.
6. Using the white frosting, create a circle of frosting around the red frosting hat.
7. Add a dab of white frosting for the top of the Santa Hat.
8. Nestle two Mini Oreo cookie wafers into the frosting for the Mickey Ears.
9. Use glue dots to affix to white dots on the red cupcake liner for Mickey's buttons.
