  • You will need:

    For Cupcakes:
    4 TBSP room temperature butter
    ½ cup water
    2 eggs

    For Frosting:
    8 TBSP room temperature butter
    2 cups powdered sugar
    2 TBSP milk

    12 baking liners (not included)

    Directions:
    Cupcakes
    1. Preheat oven to 375°F. Line 12 muffin cups with baking liners (not included).
    2. Using an electric mixer, combine cupcake mix, water, butter, and eggs* in mixing bowl. Mix until well-combined. Distribute batter evenly between 12 muffin cups.
    3. Bake for 16 to 18 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool cupcakes completely before frosting.
    4. Assemble aprons by interlocking ends and sit one cupcake in each apron.

    Frosting
    1. Beat room temperature butter with mixer on HIGH until light and fluffy, about 1 minute.
    2. Add frosting mix and powdered sugar; beat on LOW until combined.
    3. Add milk and beat on HIGH until creamy.
    4. Drape the piping bag over edges of a glass to make filling easier and use a spatula to fill with frosting. Cut ¾ inch off the tip of the bag, twist the top of the piping bag to close, and gently squeeze frosting to the tip.
    5. Pipe a ring of frosting on each cupcake (fig.1). Next, start at the top of the cupcake and make a vertical line of frosting down the middle (fig.2). Then zig zag back to where you started (fig.3). Repeat the line and zig zag on the other half to finish the Brains! (fig 4). Place on serving platter and enjoy!

    *High Altitude (over 3500 ft): Add ½ cup flour to mix; decrease water to 1/3 cup. Mix only until well-blended. Makes 15.
