Looking for an incredibly cute way to make cow cupcakes? The chocolate Kodiak cupcake recipe has a full piping tutorial anyone can do!

Course: Dessert

Servings:

2 cups dark chocolate Kodiak Power Cakes Mix
1 cup unsweetened vanilla almond milk (any milk will work)
2 large eggs
1/4 cup honey
1/2 cup chocolate chips (save a couple of tablespoons for topping the batter before baking)
16 oz white frosting with a 1M open tip
6 oz black gel glaze or black frosting
6 oz pink frosting with a leaf frosting tip

Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of chocolate Kodiak Mix and 1 cup of unsweetened vanilla almond milk. Whisk until the mixture is combined and smooth.
Then add the eggs and honey and whisk again.
Gently fold in the chocolate chips at the end.
Line a cupcake pan with cupcake liners and fill them almost all the way to the top. Kodiak mix doesn’t rise as much as regular cupcakes.
Bake them for 15 minutes.
Take them out of the oven and rest.

Put each color of frosting in separate piping bags - the pink should be fitted with a leaf tip for the ears.
The white frosting should be in a 1 M open tip to pipe the white base out.
The black gel frosting comes in it’s own little tube with a small opening - this helps you draw the black spots of the cow.
Squeeze a few tablespoons worth of white frosting on each cupcake
Use a spatula to flatten it down
Pipe pink little “leafs” for the ears
Take some extra pink frosting and plop it where the nose would be - use a stick (I used a cake pop stick) to shape the nose by swirling it into a circular motion
Draw eyes with the black gel frosting before shaping the cow spots - gently color the spots in
