Ingredients
12 Chocolate Cupcakes
6 Oreo Cookies, split
12 Hershey Kisses
0.5 batch Cream Cheese Frosting
Green gel food coloring
Orange gel food coloring
White and orange sprinkles
Instructions
Divide the prepared cream cheese frosting into two bowls.
Stir green food coloring into the larger portion until vibrant.
Mix orange food coloring into the smaller bowl until bright.
Split the Oreo cookies in half, keeping only the side with the cream.
Place a dollop of orange frosting in the center of the cream-filled Oreo side.
Press a Hershey Kiss firmly onto the orange frosting to secure the hat tip.
Decorate the base of the chocolate kiss with white and orange sprinkles.
Fill a piping bag with green frosting and swirl onto cooled cupcakes before topping with the assembled witch hats.
Notes
Ensure cupcakes are completely cooled before frosting to prevent melting. You can use pre-made cupcakes to save time. When splitting the Oreos, twist gently to ensure a clean break.
