Mummy cupcakes

This week I made some very cute mummy cupcakes. The recipe and idea came from the lovely Lilly Vanilli's book 'A Zombie ate my Cupcake'. This is an amazing book full of spooky and brilliant recipes. They are very simple, all you have to do is make a batch of chocolate cupcakes, a batch of vanilla icing and either red and black food colouring, or chocolate chips. Simplly use a piping bag with a flat tip to pipe on white 'bandages' around the outside leaving the center clear. Either colour the remaining icing red and black and pipe on red eyes with black pupils or put two chocolate chips for the eyes. They are very cute but a couple of mine didn't work because I didn't wait for them  to cool completely before icing them. The icing meltes and ruined the bandage design. I give this recipies four out of five, mostly because I was running out of time and found waiting for the cupcakes to cool frustrating. They tasted amazing.http://www.bestrecipes.com.au/recipe/simple-chocolate-cupcakes-L5862.html This is the site that I got my cupcake recipie from. They were great.
