Halloween Critter Cupcakes

Reserve 1/4 cup of the chocolate frosting for decorating, then frost the tops of cupcakes with remaining chocolate frosting. Split cookies, leaving filling on 1 side of each cookie.

Decorate with orange filling or split cookies to resemble cat faces using licorice for whiskers, candy corn for noses, and securing with a small amount of frosting.

Use plain split cookies for bat wings. Decorate with colored sprinkles, securing with a small amount of frosting. Stand cat faces on edge on top of half the cupcakes. Place a 3 inch piece of licorice behind each cat face for a tail.

Arrange bat wings on top of remaining cupcakes to resemble bats. Place jelly in center of each bat, securing with a small amount of frosting.
