TOXIC BLOODY CUPCAKES

Prep Time:

30 mins

Cook Time:

15 mins

Total Time:

45 mins

Bloody Halloween Desserts are so spooky and fun! Add color to your dessert table with these scary Toxic Bloody Cupcakes!

Ingredients

Toxic Cupcakes:

• 2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
• 2 cups sugar
• 3 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup whole milk
• 1/2 cup vegetable oil
• 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
• 2 large eggs
• 2/3 cup water
• Green Gel Food Color

Frosting:

• 2 cups butter unsalted room temperature
• 8 cups powdered sugar
• 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
• 3 tablespoons milk
• Orange Gel Food Color

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F degrees and add cupcake liners to a cupcake/muffin pan.
2. To a large bowl add: flour, sugar, baking powder and salt, whisk to combine. Set aside.
3. Add milk, vegetable oil, vanilla extract and eggs to a mixer bowl and whisk until fully combined, about 1 minute on medium speed.
4. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and beat until well combined. Stop once to scrape the sides and bottom of the bowl.
5. Slowly, with the mixer on low speed, add gel food color and the water to the batter and mix just until combined. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed to make sure everything is well combined.
6. The batter is thin, I find it easier to add it to a pancake dispenser, this makes filling the cupcakes liners much easier.
7. Fill the cupcake liners just a little over half and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out with a few moist crumbs NOT raw batter. In my oven, the cupcakes were perfectly done at the 20 minutes mark. Do NOT open the oven until 15 minutes have passed. Start checking on the cupcakes at the 15 minutes mark. If you are baking mini cupcakes, they may be done in 9-12 minutes, start checking after 9 minutes.
8. Remove the cupcakes from oven and allow to cool for 3-5 minutes in the pan, then remove to a cooling rack to finish cooling.
9. Cut a small well into the cupcake and add one tablespoon of cherry pie filling, cover with the cutted top.

Frosting:

1. Add butter to a large mixer bowl and mix until smooth.
2. Add 4 cups of powdered sugar and mix until smooth.
3. Add the vanilla extract and milk, mix until smooth.
4. Add the remaining 4 cups of powdered sugar and mix until smooth.
5. Garnish with sparkling red gel, an eyeball and a knife.

Recipe Notes

Start checking on the cupcakes at the 15 minute baking mark, every oven is different and if the muffin tin is larger, it may take up to 20-25 minutes for the cupcakes to be fully baked.

BLODDY GHOST GRAVES

Prep Time:

20 mins

Cook Time:

40 mins

Total Time:

1 hr

Bloody Halloween Desserts are so fun and spooky, serve some scary and delicious Bloody Ghost Graves at your next Halloween party!

Ingredients

• Soft butter or baking spray for greasing the pan
• 8 large eggs
• 1½ cup light brown sugar
• 2 cups sugar
• 16 ounces / 4 sticks unsalted butter melted
• 2 cups cocoa sifted
• 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup flour sifted
• ½ teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/2 cup cherry pie filling
• 12 marshmallow ghosts
• Sparkling red gel

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
2. Place a baking sheet (parchment paper) in an 9x12 inch pan so it covers the bottom and 2 sides (to facilitate the brownie removal). Butter the pan and set aside.
3. In a mixer fitted with the wire whisk attachment, beat the eggs at medium speed until fluffy and light yellow, add the white and brown sugar and beat until combined. Add remaining ingredients and mix to combine.
4. Pour the batter into the pan, add and stir in the cherry pie filling. Bake for 35-40 minutes. Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center of the pan, it should come out with just a few crumbles attached. I find that 40 minutes in my oven for this recipe is perfect timing.
5. When done, remove from oven and place the pan on a cooling rack.
6. Once cooled, cut into rectangles and using a small tea spoon, make small well into the brownies.
7. Cut the bottom of the ghosts, with a torch melt the bottom just a bit. Secure the ghosts into the wells, garnish with sparkling red gel.
8. Enjoy!
