Pumpkin Cupcakes :)

I made these for Darragh to take over to his cousin Charlies house because tonight was their sleepover :)

For the pumpkins I used a candy mold ,I added orange Wilton candy colour ..

 Then I used the black & green Wilton colour from this set to paint on the faces & leaves :)

I used a basic recipe for the cupcakes which made exactly 36......lol

12oz Plain Flour

12oz Caster sugar

12oz Real butter

1 &1/2 Tsps of madagascar vanilla

6 Free range eggs

2 Tblsp organic Green & Blacks Cocoa powder

3 Tsp of baking powder

Beat butter until pale in colour

Add sugar & beat for 5 mins

Add eggs one by one & then add vanilla beat slowly

Combine flour,cocoa & baking powder together & sift into bowl,mix very slowly for

2 minutes only.

Scoop into your cases & bake at 155 in a fan oven for 15 mins..

Add a little chocolate butter icing so you can place the pumpkin on the cakes firmly...

Voilla Pumpkin cupcakes for all the family to enjoy :):)

  Ready to leave home.....lol

The one that got away was truly deliciously moist ;)
