Bat Cupcakes are easy to make and are a great halloween treat. Of course, they are not just kids cupcakes, adults love them too.
There is something enjoyable about eating a sweet cupcake for dessert, especially when they have been decorated for a holiday like Halloween.
The cupcake in the picture to the right uses vanilla icing. Last year we used a neon orange food coloring flavored with orange flavored extract for the cupcakes. The orange color and flavor went well with the brown chocolate kisses.
