How adorable are these Scary Spiderweb Cupcakes from Betty Crocker?  Adorable, and just creepy enough!  Make these super easy, super festive cupcakes for your Halloween party this weekend!


Ingredients
1 box Betty Crocker SuperMoist devil's food cake mix

1 container Betty Crocker Rich & Creamy vanilla frosting
3 drops red food color
4-5 drops yellow food color
1 tube {0.68 oz} Betty Crocker black decorating gel
48 large black gumdrops

Heat oven to 350 degrees {325 for dark or nonstick pans}.  Make and cool cupcakes as directed on box for 24 cupcakes.

Tint frosting with red and yellow food colors to make orange frosting.  Spread frosting over tops of cupcakes.

Squeeze circles of decorating gel on each cupcake; pull knife through gel from center outward to make web.  To make each spider, roll out 1 gumdrop and cut out 8 strips for legs; place another gumdrop on top.  Place spider on cupcake.  Store loosely covered.
