Candy Corn Cupcakes

I have to tell you, I had fun making these candy corn cupcakes.

I wanted to to get into the Halloween spirit with everyone else (and not just by eating as much chocolate as I can).

And I tried to make these Chocolate and Peanut Butter Bugles

You can go visit Cookies and Cups and see what they are supposed to look like.

Bugles are like chips, 1/3 of the bag will be unusable for these.
The peanut butter yummy is delicious and I could make myself sick eating it all by itself….
but what a pain in the butt trying to get it into the tiny bugle opening.
Now the dipping is easy, my 9 year old did it for me.
When all was said and done, we only had enough to fill a large butter tub.
In a family of 5, that can cause injuries.

So Shelly (at Cookies and Cups), If you can hear me, next time you make these, I’d be happy to take them off your hands!

Back to me.

I can be as clever as the next person. A few months back the girls and I made a rainbow cake. I can use the same principle to make Candy Corn Cupcakes!

And I did it the easy way, box mixes.

Candy Corn Cupcakes

1 box white or yellow cake mix
1 box chocolate cake mix

Make both batters as directed on box.

Divide the yellow batter in half (or close)

And color one of them orange.
(and a shameless plug for Pampered Chef, I love my batter bowls!)

Line muffin tins with liners (you’re using 2 boxes of cake mix so this will make up to 48 full size cupcakes)

Time to make a mess….

Spoon, laddle, use whatever you have to fill each muffin cup about 1/3 to 1/2 half full with the chocolate batter.
