Brain Cupcakes:What you'll need:
-12 Cupcakes (Classic Cupcake Recipe)
-Buttercream Frosting
-Food Coloring
How to make it:
-Bake a batch of classic cupcakes.
-Spread a coat of light orange icing (we stirred drops of yellow and pink food coloring, and just a touch of green, into 2 cups of buttercream frosting until we had a hue we liked) on a dozen cupcakes.
-Use a pastry bag fitted with a number 10 round tip to top them with fat zigzags. It works best to first pipe two zigzags down the middle and then fill in the sides.
Creepy Eyeballs:
What you'll need:
-3.4-ounce box vanilla pudding mix
-Jelly beans
-LifeSavers Gummies
-Plastic eggs
-2 empty egg cartons
How to make it:
-Prepare the pudding according to the package directions. For each eye, fit a jelly bean into the center of a LifeSavers Gummies candy and place it in a plastic egg half.
-Fill the egg cup with the pudding, then place the egg halves in an egg carton in the freezer until they're firm (about 3 hours).
-Remove the egg halves from the freezer and let them sit at room temperature for about 3 to 5 minutes.
-With the back of a fork, gently press down on the edge of the pudding, rolling the frozen ball out of the egg cup. If you're not serving them right away, place the eyes in a freezer-safe dish in the freezer until you're ready.
