You can use any chocolate cupcake or muffin recipe for these scary skull cupcakes which are always are hit at any Halloween party I bring them to. I was inspired by the movie 'Night of the Living Dead' when creating them.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line two 12-cup muffin tins with paper liners, preferable dark-colored or Halloween-themed ones.
- Combine cake mix, water, eggs, and oil in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer on low speed until moistened, about 30 seconds. Beat at medium speed until batter is smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes. Spoon batter into the prepared muffin cups, filling each 3/4 full.
- Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 18 to 21 minutes. Remove from oven and cool tins on a wire rack for 15 minutes. Remove cupcakes from the tins and cool completely on a wire rack before decorating, about 1 hour.
- Frost each cupcake with a thin layer of white vanilla frosting and refrigerate for 30 minutes to make decorating easier.
- Remove cupcakes from fridge and apply a second layer of white frosting. Fill a piping bag outfitted with a small round tip with chocolate frosting and draw a skull face on the cupcakes: pipe large ovals for the eyes, two dots for the nostrils, and a large "stitched" smile for the mouth.

- Hooting Halloween owls. Give a hoot about Halloween by serving up these crowd-pleasing owl cupcakes. These simple chocolate sponges use icing, Maltesers, jellies and sweets to create these beautiful birds that are sure to go down a treat with kids and adults alike.
- Frankenstein’s monster cupcakes. These groovy green monster cakes use black and green icing and mini marshmallows with frighteningly good results. Choose a ghoulish green colouring paste then switch to black to pipe on gruesome faces.
- Ghost cupcakes. Keep it simple with spooky spectre sponges to add to your Halloween platter. Drape your vanilla cupcakes with cookie cutter sized sheets of fondant and draw on some simple faces with a black icing pen.
- Spider nest cakes. We’re almost too spooked to eat these colourful cupcakes. Use hundreds and thousands in your classic vanilla cupcake batter to create the speckles, then top with a tuft of candy floss and a plastic spider, or, create your own spiders with a giant chocolate button and black liquorice lace legs.
- Monster cupcakes. Channel your little monsters’ creativity with these weird and wonderful creations. Mix it up with a variety of sweets and coloured fondant and see how many crazy faces they can make.
- Spider web muffins. These chocolatey bakes are easy to make and are sure to stand out in any Halloween selection of treats. Create this cool cobweb design with dark and white chocolate by piping circles of dark chocolate on a white base, then dragging skewers though the circles to create a webbing effect.

- Spider cakes. For some more traditionally terrifying cupcake idea, try these amazing arachnids (although these spiders are on the cute side of creepy).
- Haunted graveyard cakes. These spine-chilling showstopper cupcakes are sure to add some chocolatey goodness to your celebrations. Try using the cookie gravel and ghostly meringue toppers from our graveyard cake recipe and adding them to light chocolate cupcakes.
