Burger Cupcakes

I made this recipe last year and everyone loved it! The first attempt might be messy, but they turn out great!

You will need:

• 1 package of vanilla cupcakes
• 1 package of chocolate cupcakes
• Sesame seeds
• 2 tablespoons of sugar
• 1 tube of red, yellow, and green vanilla frosting* 

*Note: You can save money by just using one can of vanilla frosting and and red, yellow, and green food coloring and mixing them yourself.

Instructions:

• Mix and bake the vanilla and chocolate cupcakes according to packaged instructions.
• Allow cupcakes to bake and cool completely.
• Using a sharp knife, slice each vanilla cupcake in half. This will create the "bun" for your burger.
• Slice each of the chocolate cupcakes about a half inch from the bottom to create the "patty" for your burger. 
• Separate your bun. Place a little frosting in the center of the bottom cupcake. This will act as the glue to keep your finished cupcake together. It does not matter what color frosting you use.
• Place the patty on the bottom bun.
• To create "cheese", spread yellow frosting in a square around the edges of your patty.
• For "lettuce," squeeze on the green frosting. Allow it to overlap with the yellow frosting a bit. 
• For "ketchup", add some red frosting the same way you did with the green, allowing it to peek over the other colors
• Set the top bun on top of your patty.
• Mix two teaspoons of sugar with a teaspoon of water. Brush a bit of the mixture on top of your bun. This is to hold the sesame seeds.
• Sprinkle some sesame seeds on top.
• Serve and enjoy!
