My kids love helping make cupcakes, they take turns adding ingredients to the stand mixer and love to put the papers into the muffin tins. They stay til the end because they love to lick the spatula! When it is time to decorate they eagerly come to help. They work for the promise of licks of frosting and Peeps when we finish!
So in under 3 hours – start to finish you will end up with some fun snowman cupcakes. What a perfect addition to your snow day right?
