Every Mickey birthday party has to have a Mickey cake or cupcakes. I couldn’t just have a huge Mickey balloon pinata without any treats or Mickey Juice Boxes. I opted for cupcakes because I am definitely not a cake artist and let’s face it cupcakes are way easier to make.
To make these Mickey Mouse cupcakes I used one box of Pillsbury Funfetti Cake Mix
For the flat topped cupcakes, they were baked per the box instructions and then iced. One whole Oreo cookie was placed on top of the icing and two Chocolate Melting Wafers
Inspiration for the rounded topped cupcakes came from Erica’s Sweet Tooth. The rounded topped cupcakes were also iced but then were dipped into a fine powder of crushed Oreos. To crush the Oreos I removed all of their creme and double ziploc bagged the cookies. They were rolled over many times with a rolling pin until there was no lumps or anything. To not waste anything I added the creme from the Oreos to the cake mix batter. Tasted great! Again chocolate melting wafers were added for Mickey’s ears and I hole punched white paper to make Mickey’s buttons. For all of these cupcakes I suggest that you buy Red Foil Baking Cups
Do you have a Mickey Mouse lover at home? I still remember the original Mickey Mouse Club. Things sure have changed.
Krystle Cook – the creator of Home Jobs by MOM – put her psychology degree on a shelf and dived into a pile of diapers and dishes instead. She is a wife and mother to two rambunctious boys, sweating it out in her Texas hometown. She loves cooking, DIY home projects, and family fun activities.
