Ingredients

Servings

Witch hats:

  • 200 g black candy melts
  • 12 Oreo Halves with the filling scraped off (or you can use Oreo thins)
  • 12 Mini Ice cream cones (or you can cut the ends off of full-sized cones using a serrated knife)

Cupcakes:

  • 190 g softened butter
  • 190 g caster sugar
  • 1 Teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 Medium eggs
  • 190 g self-raising flour
  • black food colouring (as much as needed to get your desired shade)

Frosting:

  • 120 g softened butter
  • 500 g icing sugar
  • 3 Tablespoons milk
  • 1 Teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Lime green food colouring

Instructions

Witch hats:

  1. Line a tray with baking paper.
  2. Melt the candy melts in a saucepan or heatproof bowl.
  3. Dip an Oreo half into the candy melts then place it onto your tray. Then dip a mini ice cream cone into the candy melts and place it directly on top of the Oreo. Repeat until you have 12 witch hats.
  4. Place your witch hats in the fridge for 30 minutes until the candy melts have hardened then gently peel them off the baking paper.

Cupcakes:

  1. Preheat your oven to 180℃ (160℃ for fan ovens) and line a cupcake or muffin tin with 12 black cupcake cases.
  2. In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until soft and fluffy then stir in the vanilla extract.
  3. Mix in the flour and the eggs, a little bit at a time, until you have a smooth, thick cake batter. Stir in the black food colouring.
  4. Divide the batter between your 12 cases and bake for 20-25 minutes until a toothpick through the middle comes out clean. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool.

Frosting:

  1. Add the butter to a bowl. Stir in half of the icing sugar and half of the milk. Once that's smooth, add the rest and mix well.
  2. Stir the vanilla extract and lime green food colouring into the frosting then transfer it to a piping bag fitted with your favourite nozzle.
  3. Pipe some frosting onto each cupcake and top with an edible witch hat.

Notes

  • Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
