I am not a huge fan of pie. Never really have been. But you know what I do like!? Cupcakes! So why not pie cupcakes!? These are easy as pie guys (Hehehehehehe) as you just need basic cupcakes and store bought frosting (or you can make your own). I made these on KTLA this week. Watch the video below and scroll down for the recipe!
Simple Pie Cupcakes
by Jessie Daye
Simple Pie Cupcakes
Ingredients
- White cupcakes
- 4 packages Jelly Belly Berries 1 large bag makes 6-8 cupcakes
- 2 containers White frosting
- Brown food coloring gel
- Red food coloring gel
- Blue food coloring gel
- 2 Piping bags
Method
- Separate frosting into four bowls, one for red, one for blue, one for brown, and save a small portion of white for the "whipped cream".
- Mix the red frosting together and frost however many red berry cupcakes you are going to make. Immediately press in the red berries all over the top of the cupcake.
- Mix the dark blue frosting using blue food coloring gel and frost all your other cupcakes. Immediately press the blackberries into the top of the cupcake.
- Mix brown frosting and add to a piping bag fitted with a round or square tip. Do not use a star tip for this. Gradually frost around the top of the cupcake and make lines going across both directions for the top of the pie. Allow to dry.
- Using a piping bag fitted with a star tip, add white frosting and apply a dab of "whipped cream" to each cupcake.
Notes
These cupcakes are easy to make using store-bought frosting or you can make your own. Use a round or square piping tip for the pie crust lines, not a star tip.
