Cupcakes Cooking

2. Next, add oil and milk and continue mixing.
3. Add the flour mixed with the puff pastry and a little salt.
4. Then, add white or dark chocolate and a little minced lemon or vanilla peel to the dough.
5. Also, it is a measure for 12 small muffins. You can bake it like this or add two tablespoons of bitter cocoa to half the dough and make them dark in chocolate color. Then, bake the cakes in the preheated oven at 180 degrees for 18-20 minutes.
6. Once they bake, let them cool a bit, remove them from the molds, and let them cool completely, meanwhile preparing the cream for their decoration.
   

Decorating Cheese Cream

1. In a glass bowl, beat the cooled pan from the fridge until it becomes a stable foam.
2. After that, in another bowl, mix the cheese with the powdered sugar and mix it with the beaten whipping cream.
3. Then, divide the cream into several bowls, add food coloring and mix well. Choose some cute Halloween colors for decorating our cupcakes.
4. Finally, put the colored cheese cream in a pastry bag to decorate our cakes.

Other Decorating Creams

1. If you do not want to use cream cheese, you can use dark chocolate cream (refer to the recipe here for the ingredients and preparation).
2. Also, you can use Royal icing cream for your decoration. It makes with egg white and powdered sugar. So, you will mix an egg white, a tablespoon of lemon juice, and 50-100 g of powdered sugar. Then, you can decorate the cakes with chocolate in the shape of a spider web.
3. So, follow these steps to make an icing spider web.
4. First, throw the royal icing in the pastry bag.
5. Then, by starting from the center of the chocolate muffin, we will decorate the whole surface in a spiral shape.
6. Next, with a toothpick starting from the center towards the sides, we will pull at some points to give it the spider web shape.
7. We do the same with the dark chocolate cream, but you can also use melted chocolate, which we shape as I explained, and put it in the fridge to harden again and use it as a decoration element in cakes or muffins as in our case.
