*+Snowmen cupcakes:+*
Dip top of each cupcake in coarse sugar; gently shake off excess sugar. For stovepipe hats, microwave chocolate wafers for a few seconds to slightly soften as needed. Use a serrated knife to cut two narrow strips from opposite sides of each wafer. (Large center piece will form crown of hat; one strip will form brim.)
Add chips and mini chips to cupcake placing point of chips in cupcake to form eyes and mouth. Cut small piece of orange slice to form nose.
Stick brim of hat, rounded side up, into top of cupcake; insert hat crown into top edge. Secure with additional frosting. Color frosting if desired; place in resealable plastic bag. Cut small hole in corner of bag. Pipe decorative hat band; add dragees and sprinkles if desired. Sprinkle cupcakes with glitter if desired.
