Charlie Brown Thanksgiving cupcakes

A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving was an important part of my childhood, I looked forward to watching it every year.

Everyone remembers Snoopy’s the famous Thanksgiving menu: buttered toast, pretzels, popcorn and jellybeans. What kid didn’t want that for Thanksgiving?! I decided to recreate this famous holiday meal in cupcake form. Makes perfect sense…right?

Charlie Brown Thanksgiving cupcakes

Ingredients:

pumpkin cupcakes (recipe here)
whipped cream cheese frosting (recipe here)
mini toasts
mini pretzels
popcorn
jelly beans ( I used jelly bellies because they are smaller)

Instructions:

First I printed out a cute Pilgrim Snoopy and glued it to a popsicle stick. This would serve as the backdrop for the treats.

Frost the cupcakes then assemble all the pieces of the Holiday Meal.

Serve alongside pumpkin pie at Thanksgiving.

    Thanks for sharing! My son’s Birthday falls on Thanksgiving this year and I would love to make these! I’ve bought the jelly bellies and mini pretzels already. What did you use as the little wrapper around the cupcake to hold all the “elements?”

    Where can I find the cupcake wrappers? I like that it can hold the “toppings.”

    You can find them online, they’re usually listed as “tulip wrappers”
