There comes a time in your life when you realize you’re “older”.
That night I had trouble falling asleep…visions of feathered hair and leather vests kept me awake…so I turned to the tried and true “counting sheep”.
You know where I am going with this…
because I am clearly psychotic and cannot think outside the frosting can, these are the sheep that I counted…
I thought with Easter coming up, they would be perfect.
What makes them the most perfect, though, is that they are SUPER easy.
Watch and learn…
I bought mini powdered donuts
regular sized chocolate chips
pretzel sticks (broken into smaller pieces for legs)
mini Oreos
and not pictured:
White frosting to cover cupcakes and also to use as “glue”.
Mini marshmallows for tails.
Frost the cupcakes however you would like (fancy swirls would be pretty or tinting it green and using your grass tip would be cute too!)…I just slapped on some white frosting and dipped into green jimmies.
then…
next you…
Now the fun part
It’s coming together…
If you’re feeling cute put him on a stick.
I needed to trim the stick a little bit so it stood nicely in my cupcake.
Slowly press the lollipop stick into your donut lamb and insert into frosted cupcake
Now..give your lamb some junk in the trunk with some more frosting and a mini marshmallow…
That’s it!! If you don’t want to worry about the sticks, the little lambs can rest atop of your cupcake…how cozy.
So there you have it…
Happy Spring!

Lazy Lambs rock! As always, a great job!
Those are so cute!
You are so funny! And these are absolutely adorable and so creative!
These are so super cute!
SO freaking cute!!!
These are soooo cute!
OH my goodness. Adorable!
I fell out of my chair laughing at the lone riverdancer. OH me.
If it makes you feel any better, I'm totally a Taboo kind of gal as well. And I'm a 24 year old living in NYC. Sigh.
Pass me a sheep.
I just LOLed at your story! I even made my husband read:-)
LMBO! What a great post! I laughed so hard because it sounded so familiar (okay, all but the cupcake carrier) and I can relate. I much rather have my sheltered, stay at home in my jammies, life.
Those sheep…too darn cute!!
I just wanted to tell you how happy I am that you called them green "jimmies." I'm from Baltimore but live in Virginia now and get made fun of/questioned when I request or talk about jimmies. Here, they're sprinkles. At home, they're jimmies.
That story completely cracked me up. Hilarious. And sadly, I can totally relate. My days of clubbing are long over. I'd much rather stay in and bake adorable sheep cupcakes. Love these.
I love the story that went along with making these cute cupcakes! Problem is…if I counted these sheep the number would go down instead of up! They look YUM!
Those are adorable.
You've done it again…made a really CUTE treat and made me laugh! 🙂
They are so cute!!!
Oh, and I am "older" too. All the cool kids are older 🙂
CUTE!!! Making these for Easter 🙂 the kids will help me and they will love it lol
Oh my gosh! That is so stinkin' funny! My last trip "out" was on my 40th (we won't count how many years ago that was) and a guy walked into the bar dressed in full vampire gear. It was a riot and totally scary. We left. HAven't been out since =o)
And I LOVE your cupcakes! Absolutely adorable!!!
LOL, too funny, and I can just visualize the guy in shorts. I love your cupcake and never would have guessed it would be quite so easy.
Ahhh so so cute!! I am so going to suprise Kidlet with making these this weekend 😀 We are spring cleaning and this will be the perfect reward!
You sheep are too cute!!! LOVE them and of course love your story of the bar, so funny!!!
wow, my cheeks hurt from laughing so much. My husband even had to come over and see what was making me giggle so much. Cute cupcakes, bu
Hilarious story. Adorable cupcakes!
So ridiculously adorable! I posted a link on ediblecrafts.craftgossip.com 🙂
I am so going to share these on KidsParties123
Not only are they unique and adorable but your instructions are fabulous!
I'm not really the going-out type either, and I've been to just that type of bar like you described. An interesting experience, to say the least. At least you get a good story out of it! These cupcakes are adorable. I'm so smitten with your donut sheep!
These are adorable! Thanks for the link to the eyes; I have been wanting to get some of those but was not sure where to go.
I am not a bar person either, never was. Loved your story though. You crack me up every time:)
oh man even i could do this
Your cupcakes are Adorable!
You had me LOL at your story, I'm not a bar-going type, either, so I know exactly what you're talking about.
So cute!!! I love the idea, they would be a great idea to do with your kids on Easter. Love your bar story!
These are seriously so adorable! They remind me of the wallace and gromett movies!
I LOVE fun sprinkles like the hearts. I have some oversized stars that I seem to use for everything. Christmas tree topper. Check. Lion for a circus theme cupcake. Check. Star/bows on a girly cookie. Check.
Those are presh. I don't have kids, so I'll make them for my friends' kids.
CUTE!!!!!! Love it! Now i'm craving powdered donuts.
Adorable! Makes me wish I still had kids at home to help me with them!
I love the "older" term-totally gonna be using that one;) These are such adorable cupcakes!!
Goodness these are too cute!!
