Mickey Mouse treats

So by the time I was done making all these, I was plum Mickey'd out! They were all a big hit though!
 First I made these little Mickey Oreos. Just dip regular sized Oreos in red Wilton candy chips about half way up. Let them set--it shouldn't take too long. Then, using Betty Crocker cookie icing, attach mini oreos to the top. I found it was easier to do this while the cookie was still flat on the wax paper and just let the icing set in place. Again, should take too long. Then using the same cookie icing put two little dots on the read "pants" for buttons (Sorry, I don't have a picture of that!) I put three of these in a little plastic baggie and put them in the kids goodie bags... and there may or may not have been a few left over for me :0)
I also made Mickey cupcakes. Just make chocolate cupcakes in red paper cups and frost with chocolate frosting and top with crushed oreos. (**GENIUS TIP: Put store-bought chocolate frosting in a microwaveable bowl and microwave for 10 seconds and stir. Dip your cupcakes in the faux-ganache! Don't dip too deep and wipe off the excess on the side of the bowl. then just dip straight into the crushed oreos!) Work quickly and put them in the fridge to let the frosting set. Then add two sides of the mini oreos (no cream filling for this one) and Bam! Mickey Cupcakes!

Finally, the Toodles cake! This is just one 9" round cake (cut in half and filled with strawberries, but you can do what you want) and two smaller round cakes at the top for ears. I used vanilla frosting dyed yellow. When you frost it, frost it all as one cake. Then use your preferred method of decorating tools (your own bag or Wilton's pre-canned frosting with interchangable tips) and add all your "mousekatools"

Happy baking!!
