Winter Fantasy Cupcakes

Directions

1. 1
   Frost cupcakes, reserving some frosting for decorating as desired.
2. 2
   For snowmen cupcakes: Dip the top of each cupcake in coarse sugar; gently shake off excess sugar. For stovepipe hats, microwave chocolate wafers for a few seconds to slightly soften as needed. Use a serrated knife to cut two narrow strips from opposite sides of each wafer. (Large center piece will form crown of hat; one strip will form the brim.)
3. 3
   Add chips and mini chips to cupcake to form eyes and mouth. Cut a small piece of orange slice to form the nose.
4. 4
   Stick brim of hat, rounded side up, into top of cupcake; insert hat crown into the top edge. Secure with additional frosting. Color frosting if desired; place in a resealable plastic bag. Cut a small hole in corner of bag. Pipe a decorative hat band; add dragees and sprinkles if desired. Sprinkle cupcakes with glitter if desired.
