Ingredients

  • 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ cups granulated sugar
  • 1 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp baking soda
  • ½ tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • ½ cup vegetable oil
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup boiling water
  • Gummy worms for decoration
  • Candy eyes for decoration
  • Sprinkles for decoration
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour (for cookies)
  • 1 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 egg (for cookies)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract (for cookies)
  • ½ tsp pumpkin spice (for cookies)
  • 6 cups Rice Krispies cereal
  • 1 package (10 oz) mini marshmallows
  • 3 tbsp unsalted butter (for Rice Krispie treats)
  • 1 package (3 oz) gelatin (any flavor)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Add the eggs, buttermilk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth. Gradually add boiling water, stirring until well combined. Pour the batter into lined cupcake tins and bake for 20-25 minutes.
  2. Once the cupcakes are cool, frost with chocolate frosting and decorate with gummy worms and candy eyes.
  3. In another bowl, beat the butter and brown sugar until creamy. Add the egg and vanilla and mix well. Gradually add the flour and pumpkin spice. Shape the dough into small pumpkins and bake at 350°F (175°C) for 10-12 minutes.
  4. Melt the butter in a saucepan over low heat, then add the marshmallows and mix until melted. Stir in the Rice Krispies. Transfer to a greased pan, press down, and allow to cool before cutting into shapes.
  5. Prepare gelatin according to package instructions, pour into molds, and refrigerate until set.
  6. Decorate the treats with candy eyes and additional sprinkles.
  7. Arrange all treats on a Halloween-themed platter and serve.
