Steps:
- 1. Tint 3 tablespoons of the vanilla frosting light green with the green and yellow food coloring. Spoon the frosting into a resealable bag; set aside. Spoon 3 tablespoons vanilla frosting into a resealable bag; set aside., 2. Line a cookie sheet with waxed paper. Place the corn flakes in a large bowl. Tint 1/2 cup of the vanilla frosting green with the green food coloring. Heat the green frosting in a microwave-safe bowl until liquid, about 10 to 15 seconds, stirring well. Pour the frosting over the corn flakes and toss until completely coated. Pour the coated corn flakes onto the prepared cookie sheet and spread out into a single layer. Allow the corn flakes to dry, about 30 minutes., 3. Meanwhile, cut the pound cake into 1/8-in. cubes; cover until ready to use., 4. Cut the wheat sticks in half. Soften several caramels in the microwave for no more than 3 seconds. Flatten a caramel slightly and place one end of a wheat stick in the center of the flattened caramel., Bring the caramel up and over the end of the wheat stick and shape into a drumstick. Trim the overhanging end of the wheat stick to 1/2 in. with a serrated knife. Continue to make 48 drumsticks., 5. Microwave four caramels at a time to soften, about 3 seconds. Press the caramels together and roll them out to a 3-1/2-in. diameter. Cut caramels into a 3-1/2-in. circle with a round cookie cutter or the opening of a glass. Cut out an opening for the stuffing about 1-1/2 in. wide and deep. Repeat with the remaining caramels to make 24 skins. Place the caramel skins between sheets of waxed paper. (The drumsticks and skins can be made up to 4 days in advance and kept in an airtight container.), 6. Place a mound of vanilla frosting on top of a cupcake; top with a caramel turkey skin. Tuck the edge of the caramel in 1/4 in. from the edge of the cupcake. Use a small knife to push the caramel into the frosting: it will make the turkey look plumper and give room for the lettuce corn flakes. Pinch the ends of the caramel opening; some of the frosting will pop out. Press some of the cake cubes into the frosting as the stuffing., 7. Lightly brush one side of each drumstick with a bit of water. Press each drumstick to each side of the stuffing opening. Hold several seconds to secure. Repeat with the remaining drumsticks., 8. Snip a small corner from the bag with the vanilla frosting. Add the green corn flakes around the edge of the cupcake to look like lettuce. Use some vanilla frosting if necessary to help secure. Pipe dots of vanilla frosting on the ends of the wheat sticks to look like the ends of the turkey bones. Add more cake cubes as stuffing if desired., 9. Snip a small corner from the bag with the light green frosting., Pipe a few dots around the turkey and add the candies and seeds as fruit. Cluster the purple seeds as a bunch of grapes and pipe a dot of frosting on top as the stems. Sprinkle the top of the caramel turkey with some cinnamon.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees, with racks in upper and lower thirds. Line two 24-cup mini muffin pans with paper liners. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt. In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat together peanut butter, butter, and brown sugar on high until pale and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Beat in egg and egg yolk, scraping down bowl as needed. With mixer on low, beat in flour mixture, buttermilk, and vanilla until combined.
- With the large end of a melon baller or a spoon, place 2 teaspoons batter into each muffin cup, then press a peanut-butter candy into each center until batter aligns with top edge of candy. Bake until puffed and set, about 10 minutes, rotating pans halfway through. Immediately place a piece of candy corn on top of each cupcake; let cool completely in pans on wire racks.

- Turkey Cupcakes. These fun and funky cupcakes look like turkeys — tiny, adorable, chocolatey, delicious turkeys! Soft chocolate sponge is topped with a chunky chocolate icing and then decorated with candy.
- Sweet Potato Pie Cupcakes. If you’re looking for ways to sneak more vegetables into your kids, look no further. Loaded with antioxidants and fiber, sweet potato is a really healthy addition to your kid’s diet.
- S’mores Pumpkin Cupcakes. S’mores fans young and old will love these fun cupcake versions of the camping classic. Just like s’mores, they’re made from layers of toasted marshmallow, chocolate, and graham crackers.
- Chocolate Almond Acorn Cupcakes. Cupcakes are the kind of treat that hold their own on any occasion. Kids parties, family gatherings, elegant evenings.
- Apple Pie Cupcakes. Apple pie is a holiday tradition, but you don’t always have the time (or the energy) to fuss over a whole pie. When things get crazy, turn to this easy recipe.
- Pineapple Upside Down Cupcakes. Add a touch of the tropics to your Thanksgiving table this year with these fruity, fun snacks. Similar to single-serving pineapple upside-down cakes, these are sticky, sweet, and tangy.
- Carrot Cake Cupcakes. Carrot cake is a classic. But this fun recipe isn’t anything like your grandmother’s. Ultra-moist and lightly spiced, they’re my favorite way to get my recommended daily allowance of vegetables.
- Pumpkin Pie Cupcakes. Fall is all about the pumpkin madness – pumpkin lattes, pumpkin spice, pumpkin pie, and pumpkin cupcakes. Get two in one with these delicious treats.
- Hummingbird Cupcakes. Hailing from the south, hummingbird cupcakes are dense cakes filled with fruit and nuts. They’re a great choice for Thanksgiving breakfast or brunch, as they’re not too sweet and full of energy-boosting ingredients like bananas and pecans.
- Vegan Chocolate Cupcakes. Dark and fudgy, it’s hard to believe these rich cupcakes are vegan and egg-free. This recipe is a revelation for those of us who thought of vegan baking as a joyless substitute for traditional treats.
