Treat your family to a batch of melt-in-your-mouth valentines this February 14.

Ingredients

• A cupcake (baked from your favorite recipe)
• Pink- or peach-tinted frosting
• Large marshmallow
• Thin pretzel stick

• Crisped rice cereal (a handful)
• Decorators' gel
• Candy heart

Instructions

1. Frost a cupcake (baked from your favorite recipe) with pink- or peach-tinted frosting.

2. For wings, use kitchen shears to cut a large marshmallow in half vertically, then snip each half widthwise a few times for a feathery look. Press a thin pretzel stick against the sticky side of each marshmallow half, then stick the pretzels into the cupcake.

3. Press a handful of crisped rice cereal along the top of the cupcake for Cupid's curly locks, then add a decorators' gel mouth and eyes. Finally, set a candy heart in place and pipe on frosting fingers, if you like.
