Cupcakes with Pepperidge Farm Milano cookies stuck into them like tombstones. Write "RIP" on the "tombstones".

You could even dye some shredded coconut green and sprinkle that on them like "grass".

I kind of want to make this:

it almost seems too easy though.

Death by Chocolate ~ (Halloween Recipe Idea)



Ingredients:

CAKE:

2 sticks (1/2 lb.) unsalted butter, cut into pieces

1 pound bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped

8 large eggs, lightly beaten



GLAZE:

6 ounces milk chocolate, chopped

6 tablespoons heavy cream





Directions:



Make Cake:

Preheat oven to 350°F. Butter an 8-inch springform pan. Wrap pan bottom in heavy-duty foil.



Melt butter and bittersweet chocolate in a large bowl set over a pan of simmering water. Remove bowl, stir to combine and let cool to lukewarm.



Whisk eggs into chocolate mixture until well-combined. Scrape batter into prepared pan.



Place spring-form pan in a roasting pan; pour hot water to 1 inch deep into roasting pan. Bake until cake is set around edges but wobbly in center, 30 to 35 minutes. Remove foil and let cool on a rack. Cover with plastic and chill for at least 6 hours and up to 3 days.





Make Glaze:

Put milk chocolate in a bowl. Bring cream just to a boil; pour into bowl. Let stand for 5 minutes; whisk until smooth. Cool to room temperature. Remove cake to a platter; spoon on glaze. Refrigerate for up to 5 hours.



To create spiderweb, spoon canned vanilla frosting into a ziplock bag; snip off a tiny corner. Pipe straight lines from center of cake to outer edges. Connect lines by piping curved lines in between, creating web pattern. Pipe spider or place a candy spider on web.
