Title:
Fig Spooks

Yield:
1 Batch

Categories:
Holiday,
Halloween




Ingredients:





     1 pk Cake mix


          -- gold, spice or white


   1/2 c  California dried figs


          -- stemmed


          Soft white butter icing






 Make cake according to package instructions, folding in figs which have


 been cut into small pieces.  Fill cup cake pans 2/3 full.  Bake 25 minutes


 at 375 F.  To make Spooks, turn cup cakes upside down.  Place a dab of


 icing in the center, and set whole California dried fig upright with the


 stem standing erect at the top.  Let stand until firm, then ice the whole


 thin with soft white butter icing.  Let icing flow around the base of the


 cake to resemble a sheet.  Mark off slits for eyes.  Weird-looking;


 wonderful-tasting!
