Witch's Cupcakes

Our spooky-looking Halloween Witch’s Cupcakes will be the hit of your ghostly gathering. These scrumptious Halloween cupcakes that are decorated to look like witches are wickedly good!

Makes: 24 cupcakes

Cooking Time: 15 min

Ingredients

• 1 (18.25-ounce) package chocolate cake mix, batter prepared according to package directions
• 1 (16.5-ounce) container white frosting
• 1/8 teaspoon green food color
• 24 chocolate sugar cones
• 24 chocolate wafers
• 72 candy corn candies

Instructions

1. Line two 12-cup cupcake pans with paper liners. Pour batter into pans and bake according to package directions; let cool.
    
2. In a medium bowl, combine frosting and green food color; mix well. Using a serrated knife, cut sugar cones in half crosswise; reserve wide halves for another use.
    
3. Using frosting as glue, attach pointed bottom half of each cone to a chocolate wafer, forming witch's hats (see photo). Frost cupcakes with remaining frosting and place a witch's hat on top of each cupcake. Make eyes by pushing 2 pieces of candy corn pointed-side up into each cupcake, and lay one candy corn flat to make each nose. Serve, or cover loosely until ready to serve.

Note

The leftover sugar cones are great broken up and used for topping ice cream.
