High Heel Cupcakes Recipes

HIGH HEEL CUPCAKES

Steps:

• Prepare cake batter and bake as directed on package for 24 cupcakes. Cool in pan 10 min. Remove from pan to wire racks; cool completely.
• Meanwhile, beat cream cheese, butter and vanilla in large bowl with mixer until blended. Add sugar gradually, mixing well after each addition. Add food colorings as necessary to tint frosting to desired shade; mix well. Spoon into pastry bag fitted with large star tip. Refrigerate 45 min.
• Reserve 1/2 cup of the cream cheese frosting for later use. Decorate tops of cupcakes with remaining frosting.
• Insert 1 oblong cookie, at an angle, into frosting on each cupcake. Place 1 pirouette cookie piece under each oblong cookie to resemble a high heel shoe as shown in photo, using small dab of the reserved frosting to secure cookie pieces to each other. Decorate with sprinkles as desired. Refrigerate 1 hour or until frosting is firm.

HIGH HEEL CUPCAKES RECIPE - (3.6/5)

Steps:

• BAKE (or buy...he he) your favorite cupcakes Remember to chose your cake liners with your designs in mind as they will be visible on the bottom of the shoes. DECORATE your cupcakes You can use frosting, icing, sprinkles, candy, etc. Don't be shy with food coloring! PREPARE the shoe arches For the shoe arches, you can use a number of different types of cookies/crackers. Some favorite options are: graham crackers, Milaon cookies, wafers, and nutter butters. Basically, you can use anything that can give you the desired oblong-like shape. Note: You may need to cut your chosen item into the necessary shape if you can't find something that is already oblong. DECORATE your arches Cover one side of your arch with melted chocolate, candy melts, or something similar and set aside to dry (or place in the fridge to dry faster). Once dry, you can frost the edges, add sprinkles, candy, or anything else you fancy. Time for the HEELS Cookie sticks such as Pirouettes or hard pretzel sticks work really well for the heel but feel free to experiment with other options. Cut a diagonal angle on one end (for your arch to rest on). ATTACH the Arch & Heel Use a spoon or knife to gently create a small linear space on one edge of your cupcake. Remove a small piece of the cupcake to expose a small hole where you will insert the arch. Attach the arch by gently pressing it into your cupcake. Note: make sure to continue supporting the arch with your hand until the heel is attached. Next, dip the angled portion of your heel into left over melted chocolate or candy melts (re-heat if not still hot). Then gently stabilize the heel under the arch. NOTE: Do not touch them again until fully dried and stable to move. Accessorize, Accessorize, Accessorize Once fully dried & stable, you can accessorize your shoe cupcakes however you like! Let you imagine run! Remember shoes come in pairs so we recommend decorating your cakes in pairs for best results. Enjoy!
