I recently purchased your Cook'n Recipe Software and love it! I have tried several other cookbook programs but found them unsatisfactory.

My main goal was to put my own recipes into a system that was easy and quick. I have put in about 20 so far, and I love it. It is so easy to use.

I have tried several of your recipes and they all have been wonderful!

Thank you!!

To prepare the frosting: Tint white or chocolate chip frosting with green food color until green. Cover and set aside until ready to use.

To prepare the ears: Remove paper liners from two of the cupcakes. Cut off crowns (A).

To prepare the nose: Remove paper liner from one cupcake. Cut off crown (A).

To make the bow tie: Remove paper liners from remaining three cupcakes. Set one aside for center of bow tie. Cut a small slice from two sides of each remaining cupcake (B).

To assemble the cakes: Brush loose crumbs from surface of round cake layer with a soft pastry brush. Place on cake board or baking sheet. Fasten ears to cake with chocolate frosting. Frost top and sides of face and ears with remaining chocolate frosting, reserving 1 tablespoon. Place nose, cut-side down, in center of face. Spread tip of nose with 2 teaspoons of the reserved chocolate frosting. Assemble bow tie by placing one of the cut cupcakes on each side of center cupcake. Fasten to each other with green frosting, then fasten bow tie to bottom of cake layer (C). Frost top and sides of bow tie with green frosting.

To decorate the cake: Before the frosting sets, score bear's face and ears with a fork to make "fur". Place vanilla wafers on face for eyes. Using remaining 1 teaspoon chocolate frosting and brown jelly beans, fasten one to each vanilla wafer. Press white jelly bean into chocolate frosting on nose. Make mouth using 1/2 -inch and 2 1/2 -inch pieces of licorice. Make eyebrows with 1-inch pieces of licorice. Place 1 1/2 teaspoons coconut on each ear. Place pink jelly beans on bow tie.
