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!

    This is my go-to brownie recipe also. I made them for Christmas this year and people said they were the best brownies they’d ever had. They really are as good as advertised!

    I’m always more likely to opt for a tangy, fruity dessert over a chocolatey one, but I love brownies as a midday snack 🙂 These look sooo good!

      Any kind will work. I like to use Ghirardelli or Scharffen Berger

    My absolute favourite brownie recipe – easy to make, absolutely delicious and always go down a storm.
    I like to freeze mine in smaller batches for weekend treats 🙂

      I do the same thing! I always double the recipe and throw the extras in the freezer. Nothing beats a tiny bite of frozen brownie goodness!
