A year or so ago I tried REALLY hard to make red velvet swirl cupcakes from scratch.
It wasn’t pretty…I wasted a lot of time and energy and they never worked out.
This year I got smart…I bought a box mix!
But we did do something cool to decorate them…
I used cookie stencils and powdered sugar.
First I cut the top off the cupcakes to make them flat.
Next I placed the heart shaped cookie stencil on top.
Finally I covered it with a layer of powdered sugar.
Super easy and super cute!
