Total Time: 15 min
MORE OPTIONS: 1 2 1. Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pans). Grease bottom and sides of 9-inch square pan with shortening or cooking spray. Place paper baking cup in each of 12 regular-size muffin cups. Make cake mix as directed on box, using water, oil and eggs. Pour 2 1/4 cups batter into square pan; divide remaining batter among muffin cups. Bake cupcakes 17 to 22 minutes, square pan 22 to 27 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in centers comes out clean. Cool in pans 10 minutes; remove from pans to cooling racks. Cool completely at room temperature, about 1 hour. Refrigerate or freeze square cake 1 hour until firm.
2. In small bowl, tint 1 cup of the frosting with red liquid food color to make pink frosting. In medium bowl, tint 1 1/2 cups of the frosting with red gel or paste food color to make desired color of red frosting for barn; set aside. Reserve remaining white frosting. Decorate square cake to make barn; decorate cupcakes to make 4 chicks, 4 sheep and 4 pigs.
3. Barn: Trim 1 side of square cake to form roof of barn; place cake near top of tray with roof at top of tray. To "crumb-coat" cake, spread thin layer of red frosting over entire cake to seal in crumbs. Refrigerate or freeze cake 30 to 60 minutes. Frost sides and top of cake with remaining red frosting. Make vertical lines on top of cake to look like boards (use spatula or toothpick).
For window, break 2 pretzel sticks in half; place near top of cake in square shape.
For shutters, place 1-inch-square piece of graham cracker on each side of window.
For sides and top of doorway, place 3 pretzel sticks near bottom of cake.
For doors, place 2 1/2x1-inch graham cracker rectangle on each side of doorway.
For roof, arrange eight 2 1/2 x1-inch graham cracker rectangles on top edge of cake, overlapping to form barn roof shape.
For hay, place 1/2 cup of the coconut in resealable food-storage plastic bag. Add 2 drops yellow liquid food color; seal bag and shake to mix. Place small amount of yellow coconut at bottom of window and doorway (reserve remaining yellow coconut to decorate chick cupcakes).
For grass, place remaining 1 cup coconut in resealable food-storage plastic bag. Add 2 drops green liquid food color; seal bag and shake to mix. Scatter green coconut on bottom half of tray. Decorate cupcakes and arrange on coconut grass.

4. Chicks: Frost 4 cupcakes with white frosting. Top with reserved yellow coconut. For eyes, add brown baking bits. Cut orange gumdrops to resemble beaks; place on cupcakes.
5. Sheep: Frost 4 cupcakes with white frosting. For muzzle, spread 1/2 teaspoon pink frosting in small circle on each cupcake; add red baking bit for nose. For eyes, add brown baking bits. For ears, add white gumdrop halves, cut sides down. Place marshmallow halves on face for wool.
