Materials

  • 1 box chocolate cake mix I used Betty Crocker Triple Chocolate Fudge
  • ½ cup oil
  • 1 cup water
  • 3 large eggs
  • 24 cake cones
  • 3 oz. food color spray Note: This amount is for 2 bottles of spray. If you are only baking 1 dozen cupcakes you will most likley only need one bottle
  • 48 candy eyes
  • 1 16 oz. chocolate frosting
  • 1 oz. decorating gel black
  • 24 Reese's Peanut Butter Cups Full Size

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees
  • In a large mixing bowl mix the cake mix with oil, water, and eggs until smooth
  • Place cake cones inside a baking dish or bread loaf pans (This is to provide support for the cones. They might get top heavy and tip - otherwise)
  • Pour cake batter into cones going about 2/3 of the way up
  • Bake cupcakes for 15 minutes
  • Let the cupcakes cool completely
  • Spray the cupcake cones with the green food spray
  • Frost cupcakes with chocolate frosting
  • Let that dry - It will only take a minute or two
  • use chocolate frosting to glue the candy eyes onto the green ice cream cones
  • Use black gel to make stitches and a curvy mouth
  • Place Reese's Cups on top of the cupcakes
