These witch cupcakes feature a gray and green frosting base decorated with sprinkles and a homemade witch hat. The hat is made from a Hershey's kiss and an Oreo cookie, attached together with purple frosting.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Prepare the cake mix according to package directions and bake the cupcakes. Allow them to cool completely before decorating.
  2. To form the witch hat, use the purple frosting to attach a Hershey's kiss to the center of the clean side of an Oreo cookie (filling removed). Then pipe small dots of purple frosting around the base of the kiss.
  3. If desired, attach a themed sprinkle to the top of the kiss as a hat decoration. Set the completed hats aside.
  4. Using the gray frosting, pipe a smooth flat swirl onto the top of each cooled cupcake to create the base layer.
  5. With the neon green frosting, pipe over the gray layer to create a bubbly witch's brew effect.
  6. Sprinkle the neon green sprinkles (including pearls) and white pearl sprinkles over the green frosting.
  7. Place a witch hat on one side of each cupcake, pressing gently to secure.
