Eerie Black Velvet Spider Cupcakes
These not-so-itsy bitsy Eerie Black Velvet Spider Cupcakes make for the perfect Halloween party desserts. They taste just like red velvet cupcakes but are dyed black to make them much more festive. You'll love this homemade red velvet recipe because you can make it all year round, not just at Halloween. Add eyes and legs to these spiders and watch how they disappear from your desserts table. If you didn't know better, you'd think they'd have walked away from the table by themselves.
