Last-Minute Recipes for Halloween Cupcakes
Irwin Weiner ASID - We know you're scrambling to find a few easy-to-make goodies for your upcoming Halloween party this weekend, or in a few days when Halloween hits us in the middle of the week. (Don't you just hate it when that happens?) In the following video, you'll see how to make Tombstone or Graveyard Brownies.
This recipe comes from YouTuber Sara Parker, whose 31 Days of Halloween videos include many wonderful ideas for costumes and parties and decor and recipes to help celebrate the spooky side of our holiday. Here's her Tombstone Brownies recipe.
WHAT YOU NEED
Powder sugar
Green food coloring
Brownie, Ding Dongs, or Chocolate Sponge Cake
Grahahm Cracker or Shortbread Biscuit
Chocolate letters
Nutella
Plastic skeleton
HOW TO DO IT
- Mix Sugar Powder and "Green" food coloring with a tiny bit of water or use green frosting/icing.
- Use brownie or ding dongs or choclate cake as the base.
- Use Graham Cracker or Shortbread Biscuit as tombstone, make edges a bit rounder.
- Cut a gap for the tombstone in the brownie. Place the tombstone.
- Write something on the tombstone e.g. name of the person you invited. I used premade chocolate letters and used nutella to glue them on. You can use a sugar powder to write on it, too.
- Add the green sugar powder mix as grass. Let it dry.
- Make a hole for your skeleton and place it in there. Leave some dirt around it. I cut off the legs of the plastic skeleton.
- Enjoy!
