What You Need

1 pkg. (2-layer size) chocolate cake mix

1 pkg. (4-serving size) Jell-O Chocolate Instant Pudding

1/3 cup Kool-Aid Orange Sugar Sweetened Drink Mix

2 Tbsp. hot water

1 container (450 g) ready-to-spread vanilla frosting

12 pieces black shoestring licorice (32 inches each)

24 Oreo Cookies

48 miniature candy-coated chocolate pieces

Make It

PREPARE cake batter as directed on package. Blend in dry pudding mix. Spoon into 24 paper-lined muffin cups. Bake as directed on package for cupcakes. Cool completely.

DISSOLVE drink mix in hot water. Stir into frosting until well blended. Use to frost cupcakes, reserving some of the frosting for attaching the decorations.

CUT each licorice piece into 16 (2-inch) lengths; set aside. Place 1 cookie on top of each cupcake; insert 4 licorice pieces into frosting on each side of cookie for the spider's legs. Use reserved frosting to attach chocolate pieces to tops of cookies for the spiders' eyes.
