These frightfully easy Halloween cupcakes start with a chocolate base. A topping of crushed chocolate wafers creates a dirt effect, and candy corn pumpkins plus a RIP tombstone complete the graveyard scene.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Start with a chocolate cupcake that has been frosted with chocolate icing. Crush chocolate wafers into fine crumbs and sprinkle them over the frosting to resemble soil.
  2. Place a pumpkin-shaped candy corn on top of the cupcake. Take a vanilla wafer, write 'RIP' on it, and position it like a tombstone in the 'graveyard' of crumbs.
