These are so adorable!! I love the pictures with Cookie Monster peering at the cookies :) Can't wait to see the Elmo cookies, but Cookie Monster is my fav!
Thanks for the lovely comments everyone! The only downside to eating these is that your mouth/teeth become nice and blue because of the blue frosting. Haha :D Fortunately, it's not permanent!
I used modelling fondant and black writing icing for the eyes. You can buy premade modelling fondant or you can make your own. The recipe for the modelling fondant can be found here - http://i-bake-for-you.blogspot.com/2010/01/penguin-chocolate-cherry-cupcakes.html
Conversely, you can also use white chocolate drops/chips and dot the eyes using melted dark chocolate also.
Hope this helps. Have fun making them! I'm sure your girlfriend with love them! :)
