Frankenstein Cupcakes

Super easy to make, and oh so cute, these Frankenstein Cupcakes are sure to be a hit at Halloween!

You guys! I just love Halloween so much. And I love how easy and fun it is to turn your normal treats into spooky, festive goodies.

I am presenting at the DesertNews Home Show this weekend, and I am doing my presentation on Easy Kid’s Halloween Treats. I wanted to keep things really simple so that anyone can do it. One of the treats I opted to demonstrate are these darling cupcakes!

Now I can’t take all the credit. I learned how to make these at Blended Conference from Laura at PinkCakePlate.com! And they were so easy, I had to share them with others. They are so fun, and easy to change up a bit too. You can use bigger candy eyes, pretzels for the head bolts instead of chocolate chips, etc. But here is how I like to make them!

I am now realizing I should have set this photo up the other direction. But the point is this, there are 7 steps:

1. Start with a chocolate cupcake, or whatever flavor you like.
2. Put a cookie dough scooper size scoop of green frosting on top.
3. Smooth the edges, and flatten the top a bit.
4. Dip the top in chocolate sprinkles.
5. Add 2 chocolate chips, one on each side for the bolts.
6. Add candy eyeballs (Wilton brand)
7. Add your extras, like a sprinkle mouth and red frosting scar!
