Velvet Vampire Bites

31 Days of Fun Fall Ideas: Idea #21

I needed to prepare a treat to take to a youth group fall activity so I was looking for something bloody, gory and Halloween-ish yet, tasty... and since kids of all ages seem to have fun with these fake vampire fangs, this is what I came up with...and since I'm sure by this point you are claiming, "I 'vant' to eat this cupcake," here is how I made them!  The cupcake is dense and I added, white chocolate chips to the batter for an extra fun 'bite'!

Velvet Vampire Cupcakes

1box red velvet cake mix
1 box cheesecake flavored instant pudding mix
1/3 cup oil
1 cup water
3 eggs
1 cup white chocolate chips.
1 container cream cheese frosting
1 small red tube of decorating gel

Mix ingredients together.  Fill cupcake liners in pan and bake at 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean.  Cool then frost (I used a large round tip to form drops, but any style preference will work.)  Then, lightly drizzle red frosting gel on top.  Gently press teeth part way into cupcake.
