Reindeer Cupcake Recipe
Make sure to REPIN this post 🙂
How cute are these babies!!! It does not take much to whip these up. This is the perfect treat to make for a potluck or if you want a ton of delicious cupcakes for yourself 😉
Can you spot Rudolph?
To make this treat gluten – free simple use a gluten – free cake mix and pretzels which can easily be found at your local grocer
Everything you need to make this recipe is above — everything was pretty easy to find except for those darn candy eyes. I thought I was going to have to go to Michaels to get them ( which is about a 20 minute) drive; however, I lucked out and found them in the baking aisle at Safeway!
I used red dot candies for the noses which were $1.49 from Winco ( found in the baking section) but you can cut the cost by using red hots
I would say this recipe cost me about $4.00 ish for 15 cupcakes completed — which is not too shabby!
Let’s get some close up shots 🙂
But my favorite is the reindeer with that red nose!
