We made these amazing Red Velvet Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Frosting for our Minnie Mouse Party. I think they turned out adorable! For the ears we used mini oreos and the bows we made with a chocolate mold. If you make them let us know how they turn out!
Enjoy!

Those are so cute! I love Minnie Mouse!
Looks yummy!
Too cute! My daughter would love these (huge Minnie fan). I’m definitely going to try out this recipe!
Great idea and great looking cupcakes. I have always like red velvet with cream cheese frosting but not sure if my boys would like it. They prefer white cake with buttercream like me.
