Can you believe the year is almost over?! They seem to fly by quicker and quicker... where does the time go? To make saying goodbye to 2013 a little less bitter and a little more sweet, here is a super simple and fun way to serve dessert this New Years Eve!
You will need
Directions
You will need
- cardboard circle covered in foil or festive wrapping paper
- Black licorice twist
- 12 cupcakes baked in festive baking cups
- frosting of your choice (click here to see a list of my faves)
- sprinkles, any colors
- black gel icing
Directions
First, start by snipping a licorice twist in 2 parts (making one long and one short piece) and snip off the tip to create the 2 clock hands.
Next, cover a cardboard circle with foil or decorative and festive tissue or wrapping paper. Plcae your clock hands in the center.
Spread a layer of frosting on the tops of each cupcake and roll in sprinkles. I used gold and slver sugar sprinkles, but any fun and festive color will work.
Arrange the 12 cupcakes around your board.
Use a tube of black gel icing, or tint some of your frosting to pipe on the numbers, 1-12 on each cupcake.
Now you can decorate your assembled clock.
I added some pastel confetti sprinkles to give it a little more color!
Adjust the hands of the clock as the night goes on and have a happy and healthy New Year!!!
