Here’s what you need:

  • ½ cup of butter
  • ½ cup of sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract
  • 1 ¼ cup of flour
  • 1 ¼ teaspoon of baking powder
  • A pinch of salt
  • ½ cup of milk
  • 1 bowls
  • Cupcake liners
  • White icing (frosting, buttercream, or whipped cream, etc.)
  • Banana
  • Chocolate chips or black sprinkles
  • An adult to help with baking

Here’s how you make it:

Step 1: In one bowl, add your butter, sugar, egg, and vanilla extract in a bowl and beat until creamy.

Tip: If you do not have a mixer, use the back of a fork to mash them together.


Step 2: Add the flour, baking powder and salt to your creamy mixture and stir it all together until it forms a batter. Gradually pour the milk in to help you break up any dry clumps.

Step 3: With the help of an adult, preheat the oven to 350°F.
Scoop your batter into your cupcake liners, filling each about 2/3 full.

TIP: If you do not have a special tray, stack 2 or 3 cupcake liners into one another to support the batter.

Step 4: Bake your cupcakes for 15 to 20 minutes. You can test if it’s done by sliding a wooden toothpick (or knife) into the center of a cupcake. If it comes out clean it’s ready!

Let your cupcakes cool for 5-10 mins. Once they’re ready, spread your white icing over its top.

Step 5: Cut a banana into slices and divide them into two bunches. Cut one bunch into halves and keep the other round.

Step 6: Take two banana halves and lay them on the edge of your cupcake (this is your bear’s ears). Add one more round slice to make the bear’s snout.

Step 7: Place two chocolate chips to make your bear’s eyes. Add another on top of the snout to make a cute little nose!

Voilà! You’ve got yourself a tasty set of polar bear cupcakes.
