Halloween Cupcakes

Friday, November 2, 2007

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!

What size pan? I’m guessing 9×13. Looks like an awesome recipe, can’t wait to try it!

  Sorry, I’m updating the recipe now. I used an 8×8 pan.

I have to admit that, as a Brit, I have NO idea what a snickerdoodle is, but this sounds delicious and yummy and amazing and I WANT SOME. Tis the season to eat everything pumpkin-y.

  Snickerdoodles are basically a sugar cookie with cinnamon. They’re very popular here in the US. I agree! Bring on the pumpkin 🙂
