Recipe Introduction


Easy to make and delicious, these beautiful Easter Bonnets will give your Sunday celebration a stylish flare.



List of Ingredients




1 package refrigerated sugar dough or ten 4-1/2-inch cookies
10 medium cupcakes (2-1/2-inch), store bought or homemade
2 16-ounce containers prepared white frosting
Food coloring
M&M'S® Brand Milk Chocolate Candies for Easter, STARBURST® Jellybeans, SKITTLES® Bite Size Candies for Easter, STARBURST® FUN SIZE® Fruit Chews for Easter


Recipe



Roll the sugar dough to 1/4-inch thickness. Press out ten 4-1/2-inch cookies. Bake the cookies according to directions on the package. Set aside.
Remove the paper cupcake liners from the cupcakes. Trim the rounded top of each cupcake to square off the top.
Ice the top of each cupcake with 1 tablespoon of frosting. Turn the cupcakes upside down and place them on the cookies. Set the "cookie hats" on a wire rack.

Divide the icing into 4 bowls. Beginning with a few drops of food coloring, tint the icing in each bowl to a desired pastel shade. One at a time, place the bowls into the microwave for 15 seconds. Stir the icings to achieve a consistency that's easy to pour but not too runny—like a milkshake.

Spoon icing over the hats, completely covering them. Set aside for 10 minutes to let icing firm up. If necessary, spoon icing over the ?hats? again to coat them completely.
Decorate each hat using M&M'S® Brand Milk Chocolate Candies for Easter, STARBURST® Jellybeans, and SKITTLES® Bite Size Candies for Easter.

To make hat ribbons, unwrap STARBURST® FUN SIZE® Fruit Chews for Easter. Soften them in the microwave for 5 seconds. Then thinly roll them, cut them into thin ribbons and wrap them around the hats.

Makes 10 bonnets.
