Halloween Cupcakes

I made cupcakes for the Monday Night Football game a couple weeks ago. Since I made 2 batches, I froze 1/2 to save for Halloween. I took the cupcakes and frosting out of the freezer on the 29th and put them into the fridge. Then on the 30th I took them out and set them on the counter for about an hour before decorating them.

I had a lot of fun decorating them and I think they turned out great. One note about black frosting – it stains your mouth really bad!! With the mini cupcakes for MNF, I don’t think anyone noticed, but I ate one of the orange cupcakes and my tongue and teeth were black until I drank a glass of water. I told hubby to warn his coworkers before they took one!

    Hmm it seems like your blog ate my first
    comment (it was super long) so I guess I’ll just sum it up what I had written and
    say, I’m thoroughly enjoying your blog. I too am an aspiring blog blogger but I’m still new to everything.

    Do you have any points for beginner blog writers?
    I’d really appreciate it.

    They sound awesome! Everything I like–hubby has good taste! You might want to edit–it says chocolate chips and I assume you mean butterscotch chips. Can’t wait to try them. Thanks a lot.

    I must admit that in reading this post I turned to my fiance and asked him what his favorite kind of cookie was (we’ve been together 5 1/2 years). His response: peanut butter chocolate chip. You learn something new every day 🙂

    I too love butterscotch (and coconut and toffee for that matter!) but it is such an overlooked flavor!

      Isn’t that funny?!? Crazy how you can be with someone so long and still be surprised by them!

    In the recipe you, you say to add chocolate chips(?) and there is no reference to when you add the toffee or the coconut…

      They go in with the butterscotch chips. I have updated the recipe to reflect this. Sorry about the typo.
