I made some of these chocolate witch hats that I posted about earlier today. While they were cute, I wasn't sure what to do with them besides look at them and eat them (which is really enough because those shortbread cookies are pretty darn good). I wasn't having a party so I didn't need a cute platter of witch hats. I decided to make cupcakes with them so I could share them with my husband's coworkers. And abracadabra, the Be-Witched cupcakes appeared!
Be-Witched Cupcakes
Ingredients
24 chocolate cupcakes
Orange frosting
Black frosting
White frosting
Black frosting
Green Mike & Ike
candies
24 Witch’s
Hats
1. Begin with your chocolate cupcakes and green
frosting in a piping back with no tip. Start in the center with your frosting and
squeeze a “blob” on to the cupcake. Make
it tall enough that you’ll have room for the witch’s face.
2. With your orange frosting in a bag with a small hole, drizzle “hair” on the top of the green icing.
4. Add eyes with the white frosting in a bag
with a small hole.
Or use the Wilton candy eyes that would be perfect for this. In fact, the picture of the witch in the top right of the package looks a bit like this witch.
5. Using the black frosting, at small dots in
the middle of the white eye and add a squiggly mouth line to the bottom of the
green icing.
I used a bagged frosting but it's very drippy so you have to make sure you cut the hole extremely small and only use a very small amount of frosting or your eyes will be runny.
6. Add teeth with the white frosting around the
black mouth. Place the green Mike & Ike into between
the eyes and mouth, fat end into the frosting to make the nose.
7. Top the witch with a few warts by placing
dots of green icing on the tip of the nose and on the side of her face.
Your cupcakes have been Be-Witched! My kids had a great time with these.
