Yummy Cheeseburger Cupcakes, a simple recipe for turning plain cupcakes into what looks like a cheeseburger.

Prepare the cupcakes as indicated on the packaging. I suggest that you use a very well prepped cupcake pan rather than liners. Allow the cupcakes to fully cool.
Cut the cooled cupcakes in half, from side to side ( horizontally ), to make the buns.
Make lettuce shred by tossing the shredded coconut with the green food coloring. Glove your hands if you intend to touch the food coloring.
Slice the donuts side to side ( horizontally ) to make the burger patties. Each donut will make two patties.
Start with the bottom layer which is actually the bottom half of the cut cupcake. Place the green shredded coconut on top of this.
Next, place the cut donut, aka the burger patty, on top of the coconut. One top of the coconut place a slice from the donut to serve as the patty.
Top the donut patty with the condiments. Use the orange frosting in a piping bag to make a square of 'cheese', letting the corners melt down over the patty . Then use the red frosting in a piping bag to drizzle on ketchup
Lastly, place the top bun (cupcake top half) on of the condiments and sprinkle sesame seed mix on top of the bun.
