Graveyard Cupcakes #SundaySupper

October 16, 2016 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 24 Comments

Hi Everyone,

I am Getting ready for Halloween.  I have a fabulous, easy cupcake recipe for you that will please kids and adults of all ages.  They are my ohhhh so scary Graveyard Cupcakes.  Okay, I don’t think they are scary, but kind of cute.  I’ll let you be the judge.  Check out these cuties.

Graveyard Cupcakes #SundaySupper

Aren’t they a adorable?  They are a scrumptious, chocolate, moist cupcake that is topped with a sweet buttercream frosting and decorated for Halloween.  The decorations are very easy to make too.  I love that about them.  Let me share with you the making of these Halloween gems.

Graveyard Cupcakes #SundaySupper


The first thing I do is gather all of my ingredients together.  It makes it so much easier when putting everything together.  Here are the ingredients for the cupcakes.  I used Dixie Crystals Sugar, a Southern favorite brand that has been around since 1917.  Plus, I used an egg, milk, melted butter for moisture and of course flour, salt and baking soda.  For a little bit of flavor, I used vanilla extract.  Love my vanilla extract.  Gives it such a nice flavor in chocolate.

Graveyard Cupcakes #SundaySupper

I used just a mixing bowl, and whisked everything together.  I did all I could to keep my fingers out of the bowl.  The chocolate is so rich and decadent and with Dixie Sugar it added a very nice sweetness to the cupcakes.  Here are the cupcakes before going into the oven.

Graveyard Cupcakes #SundaySupper

The cupcakes take about 15 minutes to make.  They smell amazing.  While the cupcakes were cooling I used the time to prep for the decorations.  By the time I was done the cupcakes were cool enough to frost.  For the decorations, I used a Chocolate Sandwich Cookies for the dirt.  I scraped out the frosting in the center of the cookie and pulsed the wafer portion of the cookie sandwich in my mini food processor to make it look like dirt.  I used oblong cookies for the tombstone.  I used a serrated knife to trim the bottoms of the cookie and with a black frosting pen I wrote RIP.  Pretty cool.  Then I used Gummy Sculls and Pumpkin Candies for extra decorations.  I love the look of the little pumpkins.

Graveyard Cupcakes #SundaySupper

The next step was to make the frosting.  I used 2 sticks of softened butter, 1 tablespoon of vanilla extract and 3 1/2 cups of Dixie Crystals Powdered Sugar.  For the green color, I used a few drops of green food coloring.  I used green to look like grass.  I beat everything together until was the consistency that I wanted.

Graveyard Cupcakes #SundaySupper

I got my assembly line all ready to go.  I frosted 3 cupcakes at a time and then added my decorations.  I found it easier doing it this way.  Decorating was easy.  I frosted the cupcakes with a thin layer of frosting.  I didn’t want to make it to high, since I was adding decorations to it.  I made a slight slit in the back of the cupcake to fit the tombstone, added a little bit of pulsed cookies for the dirt and then added my pumpkin or scull next to the tombstone and put in a Happy Halloween sign.  It was really fun to make.

Graveyard Cupcakes #SundaySupper

This would be a fantastic recipe to make with kids.  they would have a blast decorating the cupcakes.  You can find more fun ideas on Dixie Crystals Sugar website Kids in the Kitchen section.  They even have recipes on how to make homemade colored bath crayons.  I don’t think you need to have kids to make these?  I want to make them.  You should check it out!

Graveyard Cupcakes #SundaySupper

I have to say I am really proud of these cupcakes.  I am not a food decorator person.  I am not good at frosting or decorating.  I try and it comes out messy.  So with these cupcakes, I am proud to say I made them.  They are so pretty I don’t even want to eat them.

Author: Jennifer Drummond
Recipe type: Cupcakes
Cuisine: American
Serves: 12 cupcakes
Ingredients
  • Cupcakes:
  • 1 cup + 2 tbsp. all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
  • 1 ¼ tsp. baking soda
  • ½ tsp. salt
  • ¾ cups Dixie Crystals Pure Cane Sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tsp. vanilla extract
  • ¾ cup milk (I used non-fat)
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted and cooled
  • 12 black cupcake liners
  • Frosting:
  • 2 sticks (1 cup) butter, room temperature
  • 3 ½ cups Dixie Crystals Powdered Sugar
  • 1 tbsp. vanilla extract
  • 3 - 5 drops green food coloring
  • Decorations:
  • 12 pumpkin candies or 12 Gummy Skulls
  • 9 chocolate sandwich cookies, with center frosting removed
  • 12 oblong cookies to make tombstone (I used Milano’s)
  • 1 black frosting pen to write RIP on cookie
  • 12 Halloween Signs (optional)
Instructions
  1. To make cupcakes:
  2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  3. Line a standard muffin pan with cupcake liners; set aside.
  4. In a bowl sift together flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt; set aside.
  5. In a large bowl, whisk together the Dixie Crystals Pure Cane Sugar and egg until smooth. Add vanilla extract, milk and butter. Mix until well combined. Mix in flour mixture until no lumps remain.
  6. Evenly divide the cupcake batter into the prepared cupcake baking pan. Bake in oven for 15 - 18 minutes. Insert a toothpick to the center of the cupcake. If it comes out clean, it is done.
  7. Let cupcakes cool in pan for 10 minutes. Take out of pan and put on a cooling rack to cool completely.
  8. While cupcakes are cooling you can prepare the decorations.
  9. For the dirt: Take the frosting out of the center of the chocolate sandwich cookie. Discard the frosting (or eat it) and take the chocolate cookie wafers and pulse in a mini food processor or place in a baggie and with a rolling pin, roll over cookies until a fine powder.
  10. For the tombstone: With a serrated knife; cut off the bottoms of the oblong (Milano's) cookie to make a flat edge. I put the cookie next to the cupcake to see what size would look best. I cut off about a ½". With the black frosting pen, write RiP on the tombstone.
  11. To make frosting:
  12. In a large mixing bowl, beat together softened butter, Dixie Crystals Powered Sugar, and vanilla extract; until a creamy constancy; about 3 minutes. Add 4 - 5 drops of food coloring to get the green color you desire; make sure it is beat in well.
  13. To put together cupcakes:
  14. Frost the cupcakes with a butter knife. Add a small slit in the back of the cupcake and add the tombstone. Take ½ teaspoon of the dirt (pulsed chocolate cookie) and lay in the front of the tombstone. Add the pumpkin or gummy skull near the tombstone. Place Happy Halloween sign into cupcake.
Notes
I had plenty of leftover frosting and cookie crumbs (The dirt). Just make use for another purpose.

Hi Everyone! The weather is starting to warm up h Hi Everyone!  The weather is starting to warm up here and I have Spring fever!  #sponsored I’ve been working in the garden beds, planting annuals and enjoying some fresh air and sunshine.
🌸
I freshened up my gorgeous patio set that I got from @rstbrands. I dressed up my table by adding some Ranunculus and a cute little bunny to a tray. Doesn’t scream Spring?
🌸
I also added some throw pillows and a cute blanket to keep you warm on a chilly evening. The Yuri 4 piece patio set is made out of certified eucalyptus wood has held up so beautifully with the heavy rains and winds.
🌸
I love the shade of blue of the cushions, it reminds me of the sunny blue skies. The cushions are also so comfortable to sit on. The best part is that the covers have zippers on them so you can take the covers off and wash them.
🌸
Spring fever is hitting me hard this year and I can’t wait to enjoy the great outdoors.
🌸
Do you get Spring fever?

Happy Thursday! I am a day ahead of myself this w Happy Thursday!  I am a day ahead of myself this week. I thought yesterday was Thursday and I was excited because I thought today was Friday. I knew what day of the week it was, but my brain didn’t get it. Does that ever happen to you?
🐶
I’m sharing with you my new dog bone container that I got from @outshine_co. Oh my gosh Sampson loves it! Mom, move out of the way, I’m taking over!!
🐶
Hi all! This is Sammy here! I just have to tell you my Mom now has no excuse not to have bones in the house anymore. This beautiful container hold 5 boxes of my favorite Trader Joe’s bones. My Mom also needs to know that carrots, celery or a piece of lettuce doesn’t cut it! Bones is what I must have!
🐶
The container is made of a nice heavy coated carbon steel and holds 12lbs or 54 cups of dog food and bones. 🤩Yes thank you! That is what I’m taking about. The only thing is, the lid is so well fitted and airtight that I can’t get my paws in it. What’s up with that? Not fair! I need access to bones at all times.
🐶
My Mom loves the container too because it looks pretty on her counter and even comes with a sticker that she can write my name on. I absolutely love this container! Thank you Outshine Co. for sending this to me, I mean my Mom.
🐶
Thank your for letting me take over! I miss and love you guys!  Love Sampson!

Happy Wednesday! Half way through the week. I’m Happy Wednesday!  Half way through the week. I’m sharing with you, possibly my last look of my living room in it’s winter decor. I am so ready to add some color.
🪴
Depending on what is going on this weekend, I hoping to go to Homegoods for maybe a new blanket and some pillows. The only thing what color? I’m almost gravitating towards pink?
🪴
Though, yellow may look nice with the green plants. However, I do have so many pillows. Maybe I should look for pillow covers? Less storage. Pillows take up so much room. Oh the decisions.
🪴
I’ve seen some of you share pillow covers from Hobby Lobby. I’ve never seen them at my store, but I’ll do a search when I’m there? I guess that means I’m hitting up Hobby Lobby too. 😂
🪴
Instead of my daily question, I just want to wish and hope everyone is safe with this crazy weather.

🐰
Now that Valentines is over, it’s officially time for spring, at least in my mind. The weather may say otherwise, but I’ve been craving spring colors in my home. I went pretty neutral in my living room for winter, but I think I’m going to add some pastels. Now what color to add?
🐰
Last year if you followed me, I spent months trying to decide on what color to use. Ugh, I think I’m in the same boat again this year. I like yellows because it’s a happy color, but I also like pinks and blues. Oh the decisions.
🐰
I haven’t seem to much inspiration in the stores, though Target seems to have yellows and corals, plus a lot of neutrals. I’m seeing a lot of boho and woods. I do like woods with greenery.
🐰
What color doing you like to use in your home for Spring?

Happy Friday! We did it! Yesterday was a little bi Happy Friday! We did it! Yesterday was a little bit of rough day in my house. Woke up to see my sweet Sampson wasn’t feeling well.  He was just laying around, didn’t get up to greet me, and the biggest sign was he didn’t ask for a bone. You know how he’s obsessed with bones.
🐶
Around 9am he perked up and asked for a bone and wanted to go outside to snoop around. He seems to be better, but is still kind of laying around. I just hope he will be okay. He’s 11, and I get so worried. He’s my child.
🐶
I’m sharing with you my pretty tulips from Trader Joe’s. They have such a great selection of tulips in array of colors. Though I didn’t see any roses, which is strange. We do not have any plans for the weekend, that I know of, but we have the tendency to wing it.  I’ll keep you posted. Hope you have a wonderful Valentines weekend!

Hello Friday’s Eve! Today after work I’ll most Hello Friday’s Eve! Today after work I’ll most likely be heading to Trader Joe’s and I have to get my husband a Valentines gift. I would get him his favorite, chocolate, but he bought himself a ton of chocolate last weekend, so I’ll have to think of something else. Maybe he’ll like flowers from Trader Joe’s? Lol
🌸
Speaking of flowers, check out my new, gorgeous marble and wood cutting board that I got from my friend Brantley from @thesassyoak. I love the engraved flowers in it. It is so pretty.
🌸
The cutting board is her newest item at her Etsy shop. She engraves different items, like your name, but for me it is flowers. I’ll always keep the cutting board displayed. I think it is far to pretty to use. I’m afraid someone would scratch it.
🌸
Do you use cutting boards or just use them as display?

Happy Wednesday! My bathroom refresh should be co Happy Wednesday!  My bathroom refresh should be completed, I think this weekend? That means I get to go shopping for some new pieces to add to the bathroom. I am on the search for is some new open shelves to go above the toilet. If you have any suggestions on where to get some, let me know.
❤️
I wasn’t going to, but I decided to do a small Valentines table setting. I couldn’t resist the small white plates with the little red heart in the middle that I got from @williamssonoma. It was the first thing I bought after my no home decor buying for 30 days.
❤️
I love the simplicity of the table. It’s a small space, so I do not like to go to overboard on the decor. I added a little gift of candy hearts to bring together the reds and of course to eat.
❤️
Do you have any special plans for Valentines Day?

Hello everyone! Happy Tuesday! This weekend I clea Hello everyone! Happy Tuesday! This weekend I cleaned my kitchen sink area. It was filling up with daffodils and tulips and my husband said he feels like he’s in a greenhouse. I said they are bulbs, they won’t be there forever. Well they did poop out so I cleaned up my area to make more room for new plants.
🤣
You know when you take a photo and you realize something is in the wrong spot, so you fix it and take a photo again? Or maybe you see a crumb, a dog hair tumbleweed and you have to clean up and take a photo again. We’ll here’s my story.
😂
I took a photo of the kitchen sink area and I saw in the photo a smear mark on the dishwasher. So I cleaned the dishwasher. Then I took a photo again and I saw that smear mark again. So I scrubbed the dishwasher and ended up up cleaning all of my cabinets.
😂
I took the photo again and I saw that smear looking mark in my photo. What the heck? I examined the dishwasher and I’m thinking it’s so clean and smooth. I don’t get what that smear mark is. It was driving me crazy!!
🤣
Then it hit me. It was the reflection of the dog food dish in the dishwasher. Sigh.... All that scrubbing and I could have just moved the bowl. Well now I have a clean dishwasher and cabinets.
🤦‍♀️
Has this ever happened to you?

Hello Monday! We meet again!! And hello everyone! Hello Monday! We meet again!! And hello everyone! Hope you had a nice weekend. I took  advantage of the sunshine and 64 degree weather we had. I did some therapeutic yard work and I planted Pansies, Stock and Ranunculus in the garden. It felt so nice to be outside and to see flowers.
🌸
This weekend I finally repotted my Coffee Plant and Dracaena plant. They had roots growing out of the pot. I have no idea how the Dracaena (plant on right) plant survived. The roots were so dry and it was in about a 3” container.  I looked up the plant and it can grow to 10’. Not the care I gave mine. That little plant is about a year old.
🌸
If your looking for a low light, easy to care for plant that takes neglect, get a Dracaena. I’m proof that it can take neglect.
🌸
Basic repotting plant tips
1. Get a pot about 2-4” larger in diameter then the pot your current plant is in. Make sure it has a drainage hole at the bottom.
2. Use indoor potting soil, preferably organic.
3. Carefully take plant out of current pot, check if the roots are root bound, if so, try to untangle a little bit. Just be gentle.
4. Place plant in new pot with fresh indoor potting soil
5. Give a good watering
🌸
Did you watch the Super Bowl? I wasn’t a fan of the game, but I enjoyed some of the commercials. The Cheetos one with Ashton Kutcher and Mila Kunas made me laugh. I didn’t care for the Doritos commercial with my man Matthew McConaughey.
🌸
Were there any commercials you liked?
