In a large bowl mix the butter and powdered sugar until light and fluffy. Add in the vanilla and milk and whip until smooth and creamy. Add in green food coloring.
Place a star tip in a pastry bag and fill with frosting. Pipe a large spiral on the cupcakes to look like a tree. Decorate with candies.
Notes
Use candy like nerds or sprinkles to decorate.
If the frosting seems a bit runny, add a bit more of powdered sugar.
