Synopsis
Disney’s “Artemis Fowl,” based on the beloved book by Eoin Colfer, is a fantastical, spellbinding adventure that follows the journey of 12-year-old genius Artemis Fowl, a descendant of a long line of criminal masterminds, as he desperately tries to save his father who has been kidnapped. In order to pay his ransom, Artemis must infiltrate an ancient, underground civilization—the amazingly advanced world of fairies—and bring the kidnapper the Aculos, the fairies’ most powerful and coveted magical device. To locate the elusive object, cunning Artemis concocts a dangerous plan—so dangerous that he ultimately finds himself in a perilous war of wits with the all-powerful fairies.

Cupcakes and Decorations
The cupcakes are super simple to make! I just used a box of yellow cake mix and a box of chocolate cake mix. I used a cupcake pan to back the cupcakes in and cooked them for the time listed on the box. While the cupcakes were baking I made my own buttercream frosting, which is 3 cups of confectioners sugar, 1 teaspoon of vanilla, and a stick of room temperature butter. I whisked it all together for the icing, if you find that the icing is too clumpy you can add a little bit of water to soften.
Lastly, decorate your cupcakes with the icing and decorate with either sprinkles. or macaroons like I did. While I am adventurous I did not make the macaroons I bought them at the store. My kids loved these cupcakes and they helped decorate them! We will be enjoying these while we watch the movie!
