With Halloween right around the corner, what better way to celebrate then by baking some holiday treats! These cupcakes are not only creative, but super delicious too! So call the girls over and have a baking night, it’s a fun way to bond with your friends while making some awesome Halloween cupcakes!
What you’ll need:
White cake mix (Any cake mix will work, store bought or homemade!)
1 Tablespoon cocoa powder
Black food dye/gel
Orange food dye/gel
Plastic ziploc bags
Cupcake Liners (The black ones tend to look best with these cupcakes!
1. Follow the directions for the white cake mix and divide cake mix in half.
2. Add orange food coloring to one half until it turns the orange color that you want.
3. Add cocoa powderand black food coloring to the other half until black.
4. Put the batter into two separate Ziploc bags and cut a tip. Once the liners are in the pan, pipe orange batter into the liner.
5. Next, pipe black batter into the center of your orange batter, and then alternate these steps until your liner is 2/3 filled.
6. Bake the cupcakes as directed.
7. Let cool, and then decorate! Since I’m a chocoholic, I’d definitely smother these in some homemade chocolate buttercream and top with tons of sprinkles! Don’t be afraid to get creative HC readers!
