Another Great Big Top Cupcake Recipe

Do you know any Big Top Cupcake eating golfers? I sure do! To celebrate the best part of the season to golf, I decided to whip up some Golf Course cupcakes with my Big Top Cupcake. They taste great and are easy to make! Just follow the recipe below (I got it online!).
Ingredients (Makes 24)
- Yellow Buttermilk Cupcakes (make with the Big Top Cupcake of course!)
- Swiss Meringue Buttercream for Cupcakes
- 1 to 2 cups green sanding sugar
- 18 round white candies
- 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs (3 to 4 sheets finely ground in a food processor)
Directions
First, using an offset spatula, spread each cupcake with a smooth layer of buttercream frosting (mmmm!). Next, pour the green sanding sugar into a small or medium bowl. Dip the tops of frosted cupcakes in the sugar, and then sprinkle more on top to coat them completely.
To create the putting greens, make flags: Cut out lengths (3 to 4 inches) from white ribbon. Fold each length around one end of a wooden skewer, and adhere folded sides together with hot glue or double-sided tape. Cut ribbon into a triangle shape, and plant the skewer into a cupcake. Place a small white candy “ball” near the flag.
To create sand traps, spoon about 1 teaspoon graham-cracker crumbs in the center of each of 6 cupcakes. With your thumb, make an indentation in the middle of each pile of crumbs, shifting it to one side to form a steeper side or to form an irregularly shaped trap. Refrigerate 30 minutes to allow frosting to set.
Viola! You have Big Top Golf Course cupcakes for your favorite late-summer/early fall golfer. MMMmmm!
