7th Day of Christmas - Snowflake Cupcakes

Well this isn't so much of a recipe, but more of a me showing off what I can do ;) It was one of the girls birthdays at work and she was going to be coming out to the potluck, but unfortunately was one of the ones who wasn't able to make it out. I decided to make cupcakes and decorate them and we would sing Happy Birthday to her. Then I remembered, well this is supposed to be a Christmas Party and I just bought some new silicon bake-ware, so why not have some fun with it!

So out comes the bake-ware and the chocolate cake mix and of course the icing. Now I wasn't too sure about the silicone bakeware, as I've never used it before. So I did ask a few people if they had any suggestions for me before I started using it. "Just make sure it's really greased well." "Don't use it twice in a row without washing in between, because even if you re-grease it...IT WILL STICK!!!" ...well I didn't take that second advice, like the idiot I am and sure enough the second batch got stuck. FFFFFFF!!! But it worked to my advantage, because I was cutting the tops off the cupcakes so they were flat bottomed (and I am freezing the tops to make cake pops another day) and they broke off just perfectly!

I let them cool over night and decorated the next day...Here's how they turned out :)
