Faces:
Separate the peanut butter cups from the wrappers leaving them on so they can be moved around without getting chocolate on fingers.
Use a toothpick dipped in some melted chocolate coating to act as glue; attach the candies. Place 2 Hershey’s Drops in the middle; dot on more coating to attach the nose and 2 candy eyes.
Teeth:
Take the marshmallow bits and press them together flat for teeth; attach with melted coating.
Draw on pupils of eyes using a black edible ink pen; let dry.
If the peanut butter cups started to warm up from touching, place them in the refrigerator for a few minutes while frosting the cupcakes.
Frost the cupcakes using an offset spatula. Apply the frosting around the sides of the cupcake with a downward motion using the offset spatula, leaving a “well” in the center.
Roll/press the frosted sides of the cupcake into chocolate wafer cookie crumbs for the soil.
Place a groundhog face gently in the center until secure, coercing the crumb coated frosting around the base to help hold it in place, if necessary. Attach 2 M&M’s in position for ears with more melted chocolate as glue; let dry.
