Here's a treat to put you in a Halloween mind-set. Add brain power with these creepy cupcakes.

Ingredients

• 12 Cupcakes (Classic Cupcake Recipe)
• Buttercream Frosting

• Food Coloring

Instructions

1. Bake a batch of classic cupcakes.

2. 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.

3. 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.
