Semi Homemade Slime Pit Halloween Cupcakes | Creepy and gross that’s exactly what I love about Halloween Party desserts! Find some creepy Wilton sprinkles and cupcake liners at Target this Halloween season and create the perfect Halloween Party cupcake! The name of these Halloween Cupcakes may sound gross but the flavor is perfect. A semi homemade bakers dream. These cupcakes would also be awesome at a Shrek themed birthday party!
You’d never know just by looking at these Semi Homemade Slime Pit Halloween Cupcakes that they’re made from a vanilla cake mix, a lemon pie filling and vanilla frosting but that’s what they are! You could say these cupcakes are wearing a Halloween costume! Hahaha…..
To give these cupcakes a little touch of spookiness, I used some cool Wilton eyeball cupcake liners from Target.
Once the cupcakes are baked and completely cooled take a 1 3/4-inch circle cutter and cut out the center of each cupcake about 1/4-inch deep. Use a paring knife to remove cake. Transfer cake bites to a bowl, rub cake with your fingers to create cake crumbs (dirt).
NOTE: The cake batter is not chocolate it’s been colored brown with gel food coloring. I didn’t think chocolate cake and lemon would be a good combo.
Transfer the colored frosting into a microwave safe bowl. Microwave 30 seconds. NOTE: The frosting is not chocolate it’s been colored brown with gel food coloring.
Dip the tops of the cupcakes in the melted frosting.
Then in the cake crumbs.
Dump the lemon pie filling into a medium bowl, add green gel food coloring to the color of slime.
Transfer “slime” to a Wilton Halloween piping bag fitted with a round tip.
Fill the cut out center of each cupcake.
Add fun ingredients like Wilton Spooky Eyeball Mix to the slime pit.
Watch the kids faces light up when they see these fun toxic slime filled cupcakes!
These Semi Homemade Slime Pit Halloween Cupcakes are so much fun. Your little goules will never know or care that you didn’t make them from scratch!
