I originally made these sheep cupcakes back when Gavin was turning five for his Skylander party. Aren’t they almost too cute to eat? Well, since it’s almost Easter, and sheep are so cute and spring like, I thought the recipe and the photos could use a little updating. Well . . . that and we had another Skylander party. Don’t judge us. These bad boys are completely from scratch. They have an awesomely moist chocolate cupcake body, that is just so good! You make 24 cupcakes, but I only needed 16 cupcakes for our party. The rule of sheep head here is that you get about four sheep for every cupcake that you crumble and add 1/2 tablespoon of frosting too. And this frosting is kind of ridiculous. Like hand me a spoon ridiculous. You use some little candy eyes for the eyes, and you rip the sides off a mini marshmallow for the ears (about 1/3 of a mini marshmallow = one ear). Fact: I have eaten two sheep heads while writing this post.
