16baked chocolate cupcakes made from your favorite cake mix
16nutter butter cookies
10regular oreosground up in a food processor to resemble dirt
hard candies to resemble bones and skulls
black decorative icing
white candy melts or chocolate
Instructions
Peanut Butter Frosting
in a mixer beat together butter and peanut butter until smooth and light in color
slowly add powdered sugar and milk
beat until light and fluffy
Decorate Spooky Cupcakes
place frosting in a bag with a tip. (any tip will work that had a good size opening)
insert tip into top of cupcake and fill with frosting, then frost the top of cupcake with frosting as well (this doesn't have to be perfect because you're going to cover with Oreo "dirt"
pour your crushed Oreo into a shallow bowl
carefully dip frosted cupcakes into the Oreo crumbs. (I found this was better than sprinkling them on top)
melt the white candy melts according to the directions on the package
dip half the Nutter Butter in the white candy melt and set on baking pan lined with parchment paper and allow them to set until hard. (pop into the freezer to speed that up)
with black decorative icing write out RIP or decorate to look like ghosts
stick uncoated side of Nutter Butter down into the cupcake carefully, leaving the coated side out
