How To Make A JACK-O-LANTERN Halloween Candy Pail Out Of CAKE



To make my Jack-O-Lantern candy pail cake, I filled 12lbs of my rich Ultimate Chocolate Cake with Orange Italian Meringue Buttercream and covered the entire cake in Orange fondant. I even decorated him to look exactly like those candy pails you can buy at the dollar store - complete with a spooky Jack-O-Lantern face, and piled to the brim with my FAVE Halloween candies!

Spooky SNICKERS® Coffin Pies



Spooky Snickers Coffin Pies

A variety of spooky cookie cutters are available at kitchen supply stores during the Halloween season and year-round with online retailers.

Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes
Makes: 4 mini pies

Ingredients:

1 (7 oz) refrigerated pie pastry sheet
1 1/2 oz plain brick-style cream cheese
4 tsp marshmallow fluff
4 (9 g each) Snickers® Minis
1 oz dark chocolate, melted

Instructions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°F. On floured work surface, make 8 cutouts from pastry using 4 x 2.5-inch coffin-shaped cookie cutter. Arrange half of the cutouts on parchment paper–lined baking sheet.
2. Beat cream cheese with marshmallow fluff until smooth; spread over coffins on baking sheet, leaving 1/2–inch border. Place Snickers Minis on cream cheese mixture. Top with remaining pastry cutouts. Seal and crimp pastry with fork tines. Pierce pastry a few times to vent.
3. Bake for about 20 minutes or until lightly golden brown. Let cool completely. Spoon melted chocolate into plastic resealable bag; snip off one corner to make small hole.
4. Pipe chocolate border around each coffin. Pipe “RIP” in center of each coffin. Let stand until chocolate is set.

Tips:
• Try this recipe with pumpkin, ghost or skull cookie cutters.
• To melt chocolate, place in microwave-safe bowl; microwave on Medium, stirring every 30 seconds, for 1 to 2 minutes or until smooth and melted.
