I used the Wilton tip 2110 for the cupcakes and Wilton tip 20 for the snowflake cutouts.
Cutout Recipe: One of the best I have tried!
I cut the recipe in half, but here is the full recipe,
1 c. softened butter
1 c. confectioners' sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 to 1 tsp almond extract
2-1/2 c. all-purpose flour

In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in egg and extracts. Combine flour and salt; gradually add to the creamed mixture and mix well
Divide into 5 equal parts and refrigerate for 1 hour
Roll out on flat floured surface and do desired cutout shapes
Carefully place 1 in. apart on greased baking sheets.
Bake medium and large snowflakes at 375° for 6-1/2 to 7 minutes and small snowflakes for 5-6 minutes. Remove to wire racks to cool.
These cupcakes are so beautiful and so delicious!
