Next time your stomach growls uncontrollably, blame the cupcakes. It all starts with a regular old chocolate cupcake- and then the decoration magic happens. Two ears, a muzzle, a pair of eyes and one nose later, and you’ve got yourself one irresistibly cute brown bear staring back up at you. In a battle to the death, You versus Bear- in this particular scenario, my money’s on you.

Make 24 cupcakes and allow to cool completely.
Whip the butter and cocoa powder until well combined. Add the sugar, vanilla, and milk; beat for 1-2 minutes until light and fluffy.
Frost each cupcake using a grass pipping tip. Once frosted, cut one wafer cookie in half using a serrated blade. Place at the top corners of the cupcake, rounded side out, to make the ears. Place a second cookie, this one intact, slightly off center of the middle of the cupcake to create a muzzle.
Touch the flat side of a chocolate chip to some frosting to act as glue. Place the chocolate chip on the muzzle to create a nose. Set two white chocolate chips, flat side up to form eyes. Dot a black pupil in the center of each white chocolate chip to complete the eyes.
