Elmo and Cookie Monster Cupcakes (and 'how to' info)

I needed to make something for an MS fundraiser and my almost 4yr old suggested we incorporate Elmo and Cookie Monster into whatever we made.  So, Elmo and Cookie Monster cupcakes!

These were incredibly easy and are perfect for a toddler baking project! 

If you want to re-create them, here is what you'll need:

Cupcakes

Food coloring - blue and red and black and orange

Chocolate chip cookies

Wilton white candy melts

Frost some cupcakes with red frosting and some with blue frosting.  Add the wilton candy melts for the eyes, add some black eyeballs, orange nose and black mouth for elmo.  Break a cookie in half and use that for the mouth for cookie monster. That's it!!  Done!
