Guardians Of The Galaxy was the surprise hit of the summer, and from it emerged everyone's new favorite wooden superhero: Groot. So what better to show your love for the giant tree-creature than to eat him?

First, you make shortbread cookie dough, dye it a little darker, and flatten it out. Taking a Groot stencil, you carve out his shape as many times as you can/want.

Pipe around a pre-made cupcake with green icing for the grass.

After they bake, decorate the Groots with dark brown icing for the eyes and light brown for his trunk.


Cut a hole in the middle of the cupcakes, and stick Groot in there!


Now step back and admire your creation.
