A cute and simple little Halloween treat that everyone will love. The amount this recipe makes depends on how many cookies and chocolate kisses you have. It just depends on how many you want. The last time I made these, I ended up making about 140 or so.

Time 30m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

One 6-or-8-inch round cake
3 cups black buttercream
1 cup green buttercream (in a piping bag)
1 cup purple buttercream (in a piping bag)
1 cup orange buttercream (in a piping bag)
Halloween candy, as needed for topping
Sprinkles, for decorating

Steps:

Place the cake on your cake board in the center of a turntable cake stand. Ice the cake with black icing and, using a cake comb, comb the sides of the cake. Place the cake in the refrigerator or freezer until the black icing is hard to the touch, about 3 minutes.
Once the icing is hard, remove the cake from the fridge and place in the center of your turntable.
Using your other colored buttercreams, pipe into the grooves you made in the black icing with the comb. Turn the turntable and gently pipe the colored icing on the cake. This part does not have to be perfect because we will be scraping it off. Alternate colors to create different horizontal stripes on the cake. Using an offset spatula, smooth the colors onto the cake.
Then using a straight edge, scrape the colored icing off the cake revealing the black lines left by the cake comb.
Use the purple icing to pipe a border on the cake. Fill the top of the cake with Halloween candy and decorate with sprinkles.
