Best Pacifier Cupcakes Recipes

PACIFIER CUPCAKES

Steps:

• 1. Bake your cupcakes as directed on the package. For the cupcakes with the pink frosting I added 5 chocolate chips to the batter of each cup before baking them. I put those in the pink cup cake liners so it matched the frosting and that way I knew which ones had the chocolate chips in them.
• 2. To make the butter cream frosting: Place all ingredients in a mixing bowl and beat on high until light and fluffy. Frost your cooled cupcakes right away and if using the coconut, sprinkle the coconut over the frosting. This is enough to frost 12-18 cupcakes. Double this recipe to frost more or to frost a regular cake. Refrigerate cupcakes after frosted. Note**** Don't refrigerate frosting before you frost the cakes. It makes it very difficult to frost the cakes. (I learned that the hard way)
• 3. To make the lifesaver pacifiers: Take the 1/4 cup of the store bought white frosting and add powdered sugar to it until the frosting is quite stiff. I didn't measure it, I just eyeballed it. ** If you are not going to have other frosting flavors, rather than buying a tub of white frosting for the pacifiers, just mix powdered sugar with a tiny bit of milk until stiff.
• 4. Take a butter knife and apply a bit of the stiff frosting to the middle of the one lifesaver, some will go through the hole, no problem. Take another lifesaver and attach it sideways to the frosting you just applied. (if it doesn't stick, you need to add more powdered sugar to the white frosting.) After you have the lifesavers attached, add a little of the frosting to the other side of the hole and push a jelly bean into the frosted hole until it sticks. Smooth out the frosting around the jellybean with your finger.
• 5. When picking the jellybeans, make sure they are the colors you want before applying them. Here is a pic of some gourmet jellybeans.
• 6. Here's another picture of the cupcakes. You can create these however you want but I am just showing how to do the ones like I made. Everyone loved these! The pacifiers taste good too!

PACIFIER CUPCAKES RECIPE - (4.5/5)

Steps:

• Bake, and cool cupcakes. (Before frosting cupcakes, the tops need to be almost flat so trim off any excess with a sharp paring knife, if needed.) Frost cupcakes and decorate tops with upside down chocolate chips for eyes (or candy eyes) and pacifiers.
