Licorice. Roll licorice. This is what ended my spider cupcakes aspirations I mentioned a few days ago. I couldn’t find licorice rolls so I decided worms were the next best thing.
These are super easy to make. Here is a quick tutorial. Whip up a batch this weekend for Halloween. The kiddos will love you forever.
Worm Cupcakes
You will need to bake chocolate cupcakes. I used the Duncan Hines Devil’s Fudge cake mix. It makes 24 cupcakes. As you can see, they don’t need to be pretty. This is for worms folks.
You will need a bag of gummy worms. Cut the worms in half. Grab 1/2 bag Oreo cookies. Put cookies in a large Ziploc baggie and crush with a rolling pin or drinking cup.
Finally, you will need chocolate icing. This is where I beg of you to take 5 minutes to make it from scratch. That is all it takes to make delicious chocolate buttercream icing. It doesn’t even compare to the canned icing. I promise it is worth your time.
If you still won’t make it from scratch, then I have to show you this …
Ghiradelli chocolate! Oh, I know it is sinful. The chocolate buttercream icing recipe is right on the back of the can. Super simple.
Moving on. Spread the frosting on a cupcake. Icing hides all your imperfections.
Add another worm. Then enjoy!
