Wickedly Cute Cupcakes

Happy Halloween!! Saw this in yesterday's paper, and here is their quote: " Just in time for Halloween, make these devilishly gruesome sweets inspired by Lily Vanill's book, A Zombie Ate My Cupcake. Start with red velvet or chocolate cupcakes (store-bought or homemade), add a few simple decorations, and you're ready for ghouls of all ages!"
(no serving size given)

SHATTERED GLASS CUPCAKES:
Vanilla Frosting + Glass Shards + Bloody Cherry Sauce

DRACULA'S BITE CUPAKES:
Vanilla frosting + Bloody Cherry Sauce + Pomegranate Seeds

EERIE EYEBALL CUPCAKES
Vanilla Frosting + Gummy Eyeballs + Gummy Worms

How to make Glass Shards:
Coarsely crush hard candy like Jolly Rancher's. Spread in an even layer on a baking sheet lined with a silicone baking mat or foil coated with coconut* oil cooking spray. Bake at 300 for 5-7 min. or until melted. Cool and break into shards.

How to make Bloody Cherry Sauce:
Drain 1 (15.25 oz.) can black cherries, reserving 1/2 cup juice. Puree cherries in a blender or food processor. Pour into a med. saucepan and add reserved cherry juice, 1/4 cup Sugar in the Raw*, 1 T. cornstarch, and 1/2 t. lime juice. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Reduce heat; simmer 5-7 min. or until runny enough to pipe but thick enough to hold its shape. Cool completely.

"Be still, and KNOW that I am God!"

Have a safe and sane Halloween, My Friends!!!

Love,
