These spider cupcakes are not only adorable but they taste absolutely delicious! Perfect for birthday parties and Halloween!
- Duncan Hines Chocolate Fudge Cake Mix
- 3 eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1/3 cup water
- 1/4 cup margarine
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 200g red licorice
- 20 white chocolate chips
- 20 black chocolate chips
- 6 chocolate chip cookies (crushed)
- Duncan Hines Chocolate frosting
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line 20 cupcake liners.
- Cream together the eggs with margarine and vegetable oil.
- Add in the chocolate fudge cake mix slowly, 1/3 at a time, beating well.
- Mix together the milk and blend well. Pour into cupcake liners.
- Bake at 350 degrees for 22-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Let the cupcake cool for about 20 minutes before assembling the spiders. Ensure that you do one spider at a time. This will prevent the frosting to solidify so that the cookie crumbs are attached.
- Frost the cupcake
- Stick 4 pieces of licorice on each side of the cupcake. (8 legs for each spider)
- Sprinkle chocolate chip cookie crumbs on the cupcake.
- Use a little bit of frosting to stick the black chocolate chips onto the white chocolate chips to create eyes for the spider
- Place 2 eyes in the middle of the cupcake
- Use a tiny piece of licorice as its mouth
- Done! For visual aid please visit http:// sweetsamsations. wordpress.com
