- Stir the tub of frosting to soften slightly and spoon into the piping bag. Fit the piping bag with a large star tip and use a mug or jug to help you fill the piping bag with the frosting.
- Pipe a tall swirl of frosting onto each muffin and place on a serving plate.
- Stick a pretzel into the side of the muffin, so that it sits like a handle on a mug.
- Dust the tops with a little cocoa powder and scatter over the vermicelli sprinkles. Dot the cupcakes with the marshmallows and serve. Store in a cool place in an airtight container if keeping overnight.
