Ingredients

For the icing

  • 4 tablespoon vegan butter
  • 4 tablespoon vegan cream cheese
  • 1 cup powdered sugar (add ½ cup first, then slowly add more as needed)
  • A few drops of food coloring (mix red and yellow to get the perfect shade of orange)

For the green sugar

  • A few drops of green food coloring
  • ¼ cup sugar

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and put paper liners into a pan for small-sized cupcakes (mine makes 24 at a time). Bake the cupcakes 16-18 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Cool thoroughly on a rack, then pop out the cupcakes.
  • Using a handheld or stand mixer, beat together the cream cheese and butter in a bowl. Add the sugar and beat until mixed together. If you use less sugar, your icing will be a bit runny.
  • Place a tiny dollop of icing in the center of each cupcake.
  • To make the green sugar, mix the food coloring and sugar. Sprinkle on top of the cupcake.
