Snack or Die’s Monkey Ball cupcakes

Snack or Die is, without a doubt, my very favorite recipe website. I am always in awe: Jocelyn is the MacGyver of pastries.

Her newest confection is a jarringly apt likeness of the Super Monkey Ball mascot, its visage rendered into a perfect little cupcake. The monkey’s most salient feature, curly-cue ears, is cleverly reproduced using cinnamon cereal puffs. And the miniature pompadour is simply a Tootsy Roll that has been painted over with chocolate frosting.

So adorable!
