I had meant to post this way back before Halloween, but somehow I forgot! I love baking with my children, and this is a really fun and easy way to get them involved.

What you’ll need:

- chocolate cupcakes (don’t get fancy with your chocolate cupcake recipe because my boys went for the oreos and reece’s pieces and left the rest)

- oreos

- frosting

- reese’s pieces

Here’s how our little guys turned out. Cupcake owlies don’t really need ears do they?

About Amanda

I'm Amanda. I started Natural Mommie in 2009 and have been turning mommies from eco-weak to eco-chic ever since! Having an intense addiction to sparkly pink strawberry flavored lipgloss and never claiming to be perfectly green I vowed to not give up my hip mama self once I became a mom and wanted to bring a little more organic into my life. My closet still isn’t full of organic cotton and bamboo, but it’s getting there!

  1. Those are so cute! I might have to take your idea one of these days… but what did you do with the other half of the oreo? Did your boys eat them without the middle?

    • We munched on them as little dessert snacks, but you can also put them in a ziploc and use a rolling pin to crush them then you have a crust for your cheesecake or a topping for desserts :)

  2. Cannot wait to do this with my little girl this week…such a great idea! Thanks for sharing.

    • You’re welcome Gemma! You’ll have fun…my little guys loved checking on “the baby owlies” throughout the day to see how they were doing :)

  3. Love love love this! Can’t wait to make these.

  4. I bookmarked this, yours turned out great!

  5. Lol, I’m going to try these – my daughter will love them!

    These are so cute! My baby boy just turned 4 months so he’s not eating anything other than breast milk, but I also can’t wait to bake with him and make neat treats like this once he’s old enough:)

  7. Zune and iPod: Most people compare the Zune to the Touch, but after seeing how slim and surprisingly small and light it is, I consider it to be a rather unique hybrid that combines qualities of both the Touch and the Nano. It’s very colorful and lovely OLED screen is slightly smaller than the touch screen, but the player itself feels quite a bit smaller and lighter. It weighs about 2/3 as much, and is noticeably smaller in width and height, while being just a hair thicker.
