Ingredients:

Serving

3 cups all-purpose flour
2 cups sugar
1/2 cup baking cocoa
2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp salt
2 cups water
1 cup vegetable oil
2 tsp white vinegar
2 tsp vanilla extract
frosting:
1/2 cup shortening
1/2 cup butter, softened
4-1/4 cups confectioners' sugar
3 tbsp water
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/8 tsp almond extract
black paste food coloring
orange and black m& m's brand chocolate candies
tart 'n' tiny candies

Directions:

In a large bowl, combine the dry ingredients. Combine the water, oil, vinegar and vanilla; stir into dry ingredients just until moistened.
Fill greased or paper-lined muffin cups two-thirds full. Bake at 350° for 15-18 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks.
In a bowl, cream the shortening, butter and confectioners' sugar. Stir in water and extracts. Remove 1/2 cup frosting to a small bowl; tint with black food coloring. Frost cupcakes with remaining white frosting.
Cut a small hole in the corner of a pastry or plastic bag. Insert a small round #5 tip; fill bag with black frosting. Decorate cupcakes with black frosting and candies as desired. Yield: 2 dozen.
