Ingredients
Cake
- 1 spice cake mix
- 3.4 ounces pumpkin spice instant pudding mix
- 1 cup sour cream
- 4 large eggs
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/2 cup oil canola or vegetable
- 1 1/2 cups mini chocolate chips
Frosting and decorations
- 16 ounces cream cheese softened
- 1/2 cup butter softened
- 1/3 cup dark cocoa
- 3-4 cups powdered sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- black food coloring
- 2 red hots
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, mix cake mix, pudding mix, sour cream, eggs, water and oil. Mix until combined.
- Stir in mini chocolate chips and pour into a well-greased bundt pan.
- Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
- Let cool for 20 minutes. Remove from pan, cover with plastic wrap and let refrigerate for 1-2 hours, or overnight.
For the Frosting
- In a large bowl, mix cream cheese and butter until smooth. Add vanilla.
- Gradually add in powdered sugar while stirring. If it looks too thin (stiff peaks do not form), add more powdered sugar. If it looks too thick add 2 tablespoons of milk.
- Divide the frosting in half. Use half of the frosting to lightly frost the whole cake. Save about a tablespoon of white frosting for the fangs.
- To the other half, add ⅓ cup dark cocoa powder and black food coloring and mix until the frosting turns black.
- Then, put the black frosting and in a gallon Ziplock bag, snip off the end and pipe 8 spider “legs” going from the center to the edges.
- Fill in the middle to make the spider “body” and a little dollop for the head.
- Use the extra of the white frosting to pipe little fangs.
- Finally, place 2 Red Hots above the fangs for the eyes.
