List of Ingredients




1 package (18-1/4 ounces) yellow or white cake mix
1 cup solid-pack pumpkin
3/4 cup water
3 eggs
2 tablespoons oil
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice*
Red and yellow food coloring
1 container (16 ounces) vanilla, cream cheese, chocolate or caramel frosting
4 ounces semisweet baking chocolate
About 4 dozen black gumdrops

*Substitute 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger and 1/8 teaspoon each ground allspice and ground nutmeg for 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice.


Recipe



1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Line muffin cups with paper baking liners.

2. Combine cake mix, pumpkin, water, eggs, oil, cinnamon and pumpkin pie spice in large bowl of electric mixer. Beat at low speed 1 minute. Beat at medium speed 2 minutes until well blended.

3. Spoon 1/4 cup batter into each muffin cup. Bake 20 minutes or until toothpick inserted in centers comes out clean. Cool 5 minutes on wire rack; remove cupcakes from pans. Cool completely on wire rack.

4. Add food coloring to frosting, 1 drop at a time, until desired color is reached. Frost cupcakes.

5. Place chocolate in small resealable plastic food storage bag. Microwave at MEDIUM (50%) 40 seconds. Turn bag over; microwave 40 seconds to 1 minute or until chocolate is melted. Knead bag until chocolate is smooth. Cut tiny corner off one end of bag. Drizzle chocolate in four or five concentric circles over top of cupcake. Immediately draw 6 to 8 lines from center to edges of cupcake with toothpick or knife at regular intervals to form web design. Repeat until all cupcakes are decorated. To make spider, place one gumdrop in center of web design on top of cupcake. Roll out another gumdrop with rolling pin. Slice thinly and roll into "legs." Place legs onto cupcake to complete spider. Repeat with remaining cupcakes.
