Easter Basket Cupcakes

This Easter, I made these Easter Basket Cupcakes at the last minute. I wasn't planning on baking anything, but these are so easy to make and take such a short time that I couldn't resist. 

To begin with, bake 24 cupcakes, any variety. I baked mine in white wrappers to keep the color neutral. 

Then, take about 3/4 bag of shredded coconut and place it in a bowl. Add some green food coloring, and mix the coconut until it is all evenly coated and add more color until you reach your desired shade of green. 

Ice each cupcake with white icing, then take a handful of green coconut and press it against the icing until it is completely covered. 

Using any sort of Easter egg shaped candy, place three eggs in the middle of the cupcake.

Then, using rainbow Twizzlers, place a tooth pick in each end of the Twizzler so about half of the tooth pick is still showing. Insert the Twizzler into either side of the cupcake, bending it to look like a basket handle. 

In a short period of time, you have made Easter basket cupcakes! They are easy to make, but look adorable. Next Easter, definitely give these a try!
