Ingredients
For Cupcake:
- 1 ¼ cup flour
- ⅓ cup canola oil
- ½ tsp baking powder
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- ¼ tsp sea salt
- 1 tbsp vanilla extract
- 5 oz buttermilk
- Two eggs
For Topping:
- White frosting of choice
- Large marshmallow not oversized
- Black icing
- Orange icing
- Colorful M&Ms
Instructions
- Draw your marshmallow faces first and then set them aside. I did black dots for the eyes and mouth and then a sliver of orange for the nose—Preheat the oven to 350F.
- Beat eggs and sugar together in a medium bowl first. Add vanilla, oil, and buttermilk in.
- Next, combine all dry ingredients in a large bowl and blend well.
- Slowly add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients while stirring. Combine all ingredients well.
- Line a cupcake pan with cupcake liners. Spray lightly with oil if desired.
- Scoop the cupcake batter into the liners, filling no more than ¾ of the way.
- Bake at 350F for 20-23 minutes. Let cool completely before frosting.
- To assemble the melting snowman, frost the cooled cupcake first. Add the marshmallow face you previously put together. Use black icing to draw the 'stick' arms. Use M&Ms for the snowman's buttons as a final, colorful touch. Enjoy!
