These irresistibly adorable Frankenstein cupcakes are definitely a holiday treat, especially with all the different kinds of candies piled on top of them. Just like Frankenstein himself -- an afflicting combination of body parts -- these Frankenstein cupcakes are composed of a mishmash of ingredients like chocolate cake mix, icing, almond bark, Mike and Ike candies and marshmallows.
The creator of these adorably mashed up cakes is Zac Williams, author of the Little Monsters Cookbook, which features a wide variety of creative creature-inspired snacks. They're amazing sweets you can surprise the kids with or ask them to help decorate together. The festive desserts are great for entertaining guests or bringing to your child's school party.
