Mummy Chocolate Cupcakes for Halloween 2024
Scary Halloween Mummy Chocolate Cupcakes Halloween is such a favorite holiday of mine! No stressful and obligatory family gatherings, dressing up in costumes and lots of sweet treats. What's not to love? This year I decided to make Chocolate Cupcakes for us to enjoy and just to spread the love. I used this recipe from Sugar & Sparrow's blog. I followed the recipe and the batter was so liquid and barely filling the cupcake wells in half. Although the recipe says it makes 15 cupcakes, each portion just looked so scant I ended up dividing the batter among the 12 cupcakes in the pan. Well, that showed me! These cupcakes really rise and some of them turned out pretty big. Next time, I'll make 14. I'd planned to do a simple "mummy" decoration with the frosting, so it really wasn't a problem that some of them were so domed. The strips of the mummy's wrapping are done with a basketweave piping tip done in a bit of a random pattern...
