Cookie Monster Cupcake

We love the Cookie Monster. Whenever we could see him when we went to Sesame Place, we made a b-line straight to him. Willow wanted to snuggle right into him. That is why we wanted to make desserts to bring the Cookie Monster fun home. These Cookie Monster Cupcakes are just too cute.
