Time 1h35m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 box (15.25 oz) Betty Crocker™ Super Moist™ devil's food cake mix
Water, vegetable oil and eggs called for on cake mix box
1 container (1 lb) chocolate ready-to-spread frosting
1 cup finely crushed Oreo chocolate creme sandwich cookies (8 cookies)
1 cup cream cheese whipped ready-to-spread frosting (from 12-oz container)
1 teaspoon orange paste food color
12 green apple sour candy straws (from two 2-oz packages), cut into 1-inch pieces

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350°F. Place paper baking cup in each of 24 regular-size muffin cups. Make cake mix as directed on box, using water, oil and eggs. Divide batter evenly among muffin cups. Bake and cool as directed on box for cupcakes.
  • With small knife, cut cone shape out of center of each cupcake; discard center. Frost cupcakes with chocolate frosting, leaving cutout centers unfrosted. Sprinkle cookie crumbs on large plate. Carefully dip cupcake tops in crumbs to look like dirt.
  • In small bowl, mix cream cheese frosting and food color until well blended. Spoon into resealable food-storage plastic bag; seal bag. Cut off small corner of bag. Twist bag above frosting; squeeze bag to pipe frosting into cutout center of each cupcake. Insert 3 sour straw pieces into orange frosting to look like carrot tops.
