This killer Halloween cupcake recipe brings a whole new level to sweet revenge and someone getting their "just desserts." The ax murder desserts are both gory and cute at the same time. The recipe used chocolate cake with vanilla icing, but red velvet with cream cheese icing would work just as well. The bloody hatchet is made from red candy coating. One will have to find their own miniature ax toppers. Black foil cupcake liners also add an ominous touch.
This Halloween cupcake recipe is sure to be a hit at any holiday festivities one might attend. Inspired by the film 'So I Married an Ax Murderer,' the criminal confections could also be served at a scary movie marathon.
