Via Nicole Weston at Baking Bites, a tutorial and recipe for these awesome vampire cupcakes!

Vampire Cupcakes!

Nicole’s got dozens of other tutorials for DIY halloween treats, including Vampire Cookies, Halloween Treat ideas, and these adorable gingerbread skeletons!

If you’re even remotely interested in baking I suggest you check out Nicole’s blog. She’s always posting unique and delicious recipes, as well as tips and news from the world of baking and recipe book reviews. Nicole is one smart cookie (sorry, couldn’t resist) who holds a BA in Linguistics from UC Berkeley as well as a professional pastry certificate from the LA New School of Cooking.

She does all the cooking, baking, writing and photography on the blog herself, although if she did ALL the tasting, she wouldn’t be able to keep her figure

Seeing all the vampire stuff around these days makes me wonder how long until I have some Twilight weddings up on the blog.
