This week I wanted to share something fun for Halloween. My stepmom Donna first saw these witch cupcakes in a magazine, and she’s planning to make them for a big Halloween party and hayride that her son and his wife hold each year for the kids.
By the way, Sweet Thursday is coming up this week. If you have a sweet Halloween treat or a fall dessert to share with us, send it my way!
