Hamburger cupcakes!

Aren't these hambuger cupcakes the cutest you have ever seeeeen!!! I came across these on youtube and just had to make these. My "buns" did not come out as dark as I wanted them, but as you can see they came out cute anyway. The "hamburger" on these cupcakes could be your favorite brownie recipe or a box. I used  a box recipe, i can never make perfect homemade brownies. These would be soo cute for a kids birthday party, maybe a cookout, or a sports themed party. Or these can be a Saturday afternoon activity for the kids to make, then afterwards take them around the neighborhood on a nice summer day, and give them to neighbors. You can have so much fun with these. So lets get busy!

You're going to need:

vanilla or yellow cupcakes (I used vanilla)
brownies
sweetened coconut flakes, dyed green
buttercream icing (yellow and red) Check out my yummy buttercream icing here
pearl sprinkles

first lets color our buttercream, set aside

Color your coconut, place preferred amount of coconut in a ziplock bag, and a few drops of green coloring, close the bag and mix with your fingers til all flakes are colored

                                     

 Place your buttercream in piping bags or ziplock bags with a tiny tip of the corner cut off

Take your brownies and cut them with a cookie cutters, about the same size of the cupcake

Ta Da...patties!

 Now cut your cupcakes in half

Take the bottom half and add the 'ketchup"

Place on the "pattie" and add the "cheese or mustard"

then add the "lettuce" along the edge

Now the top bun, Then top with the pearl sprinkles for the sesame seeds

And there you go...hamburger cupcakes!

I added these little flags...sooo cute!

TIPS

*If you are using a box cake, stay away from those 'super moist, moist deluxe, mixes because you hamburger will not hold to good, at least not the bottom bun, as you can see in my pictures. Yep I used a moist deluxe mix, Big no no for these babies

*ENJOY!
