Instructions
Prepare cake mix batter according to package directions.
Fill 24 paper-lined muffin cups two-thirds full.
Bake at 350° for 21-26 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks to cool completely.
For frosting, in a small saucepan, combine the sugar, cocoa, butter and milk. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly.
Remove from the heat; stir in vanilla.
Transfer to a large bowl. Beat until thickened and mixture begins to lose its gloss, about 8 minutes.
Cut marshmallows in half widthwise; place a half on each cupcake. Frost marshmallow and top of cupcake. Dip cupcakes in chocolate sprinkles.
Place a dab of frosting on each M&M and press on cupcakes for eyes.
For spider legs, use a metal or wooden skewer to poke four holes on opposite sides of cupcakes; insert a piece of licorice into each hole.
