Last minute Halloween treat ideas for kids, adults
29.10.09
If you're looking for an easy, no-recipe-needed Halloween treat, these creeped-out cupcakes are an eerily good choice. In one, a traditional frosted cupcake falls victim to a bat attack. In the other, they take a slimy, almost radioactive, turn.
Both ideas are from Matthew Mead's "Monster Book of Halloween" (Time Inc., 2009), which is jammed with numerous ghastly treats and decorations.
And, while trick-or-treating may be all about the kids, the last recipe for martini-like cocktails is a grown-up use for candy corn, giving adults yet another reason to raid the little ones' goodie bags.
VAMPIRE CUPCAKES
Bake up a batch of your favorite cupcake recipe or prepare a boxed mix according to package directions. Alternatively, most bakeries (even those in grocers) will sell unfrosted cupcakes if asked. Once the cupcakes have cooled, frost them with white cake frosting.
Use black gel icing (the sort sold in tubes in the baking aisle) to draw a bat on top of each cupcake. A template can be downloaded from Mead's Web site at http://tinyurl.com/yeboobr . Use a toothpick to make two holes (bite marks) near each bat, then drizzle red gel icing into each.
Live Well Spend Well | Do I need this?: Silicone baking mats
by Katie
If you have never set foot in a Sur La Table, other fancypants store kitchen or the kitchen of a cook at home with delusions of grandeur, you've probably seen one of these:
It's a baking sheet liner silicone, the most famous is Silpat. These silicone and fiberglass winding sheets are in different sizes to go with different sizes of cookie sheets. Put one in your baking and you do not have to use a cooking spray or parchment paper to get lovely, quick release of baked goods that never, ever stick.
Stick-cookies-free! Save the environment against the spray on oils and waste of parchment paper! We all need that, right! .... Agree?
When I married, I had the opportunity to register for the type of cookware specialty, I never bought for myself, including a pair of silicone Silpat mat. I was going to be an advanced home cook! I have had.
Well, I may sacrifice any street Advanced Home Cook CRED I could say this, but after several years of using these things I've found ... meh.In fact (uh, crossing mental Rolodex to remember that we gave them, which confirms that they are not in fact read this site, yep, I'm clear here ...) I gavethemawaytoafriend.
Phew. I feel better.
Honestly, they were a total pain in the neck to clean, and we should let them dry completely before being rolled back up and store them (they never really seem to be dry with a towel). I've used mainly for cookies and I actually did not like the way cookies responded.It was like the bottom of the cookie is not hot enough fast enough, so the cookies spread too thin and the edges, instead of putting in place properly. Moreover, they do not brown as well as they did with a regular cookie sheet. (This could be good for the delicate sugar cookies, but I'm more like a rustic Chunky Chocolate Chip daughter, where a bottom is lightly browned good....

Place on parchment or silicone-mat-lined baking sheet about 2 inches apart. Cover again and let rise for about 30 minutes. You can also place the rolls in
For something simple, bake ``Take One Cupcakes'' in re-usable, easy to clean, silicone baking cups. Spatula ice them with white icing, then top with cut-out

10/19: I bought a great set of Wilton silicone bakeware (6-muffin tin, loaf pan, baking sheet, trivet), and finally got to try it out. These corn muffins came out perfectly.
Kinda like this recipe, except we didn't have any leftovers to put in it. I did chop some leek confit and fresh chives from the backyard, a little salt/pepper/smoked paprika for seasoning, and cheese of course. =) 7 eggs for these 6 deep muffins. They deflated a little after coming out the...
