Instructions
Make your favorite cupcakes - either your own recipe or you can make a box mix to make things easier.
Mix frosting - again, either use your own recipe or use store bought ready to use. You'll need both chocolate and vanilla.
Take a small batch of the vanilla frosting and mix green food color into it until you get a good dark green color for the frankenstein cupcakes.
Put green icing into a piping bag or resealable bag with a smalll corner cut out and pipe onto the chocolate cupcakes.
Take the dark sprinkles and arrange on the top for Frankie's hair. Then add two eyeballs. Take two Hershey Kisses and insert into the sides for his bolts.
Take a vanilla cupcake and pipe white frosting on top to form the shape of a ghost.
Add 2 eyeballs and a Herskey Kiss for a ghostly mouth.
Melt some white chocolate just until it is ready to drizzle. Drizzle onto wax paper in the shape of a spider web. Make sure webs are not too big. Place the wax paper in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes to allow the chocolate to harden again.
Mix black food color into some chocolate frosting to make black frosting. Pipe onto a chocolate cupcake and arrange the spider web on top.
Take 2 more bowls and some vanilla frosting. In one bowl mix yellow food color and the other mix orange.
Fill another resealable bag - one side orange frosting and on top of that the yellow frosting - this way the frosting will squeeze out of the piping bag as two colors combined. This will give a sort of candy corn theme.
