Cupcake Christmas Tree


Do you need a quick christmas treat? These tiny cupcakes will do!

Ingredients:
- 50 grams self-raising flour
- 50 grams sugar
- 50 grams butter
- 1 egg
- 1/2 tablespoon milk
- a dash of vanilla extract
- cocoa powder
- red food coloring
- green food coloring
- decoration pearls
- bonbonliners

Method:

1. Make a christmas tree out of bonbonliners. This will give you a good idea of how many cupcakes you'll need from which color.
Start with making the cupcake batter by mixing the self-raising flour, the sugar, the butter, the milk, the egg and some vanilla.












2. Take two extra bowls for the coloring.
For the trunk of the tree will need a small amount of batter and the cocoa powder.The more cocoa powder the darker the trunk.
For the baubles you'll need batter for about 10 tiny cupcakes. Mix this with the red food coloring.
The remaining batter will be the tree. Color this green.

3. Bake the cupcakes for 10 minutes. Keep watching! Let them cool and press a pearl in the red cupcakes.
Place the cupcakes in to the correct order.

Happy Holidays!
