Chocolate cupcakes with cherry filling topped with whipped dark chocolate ganache, OREO crumbs, and a candy tombstone! Just like the Halloween cupcakes found at Disneyland!
To the bowl of a stand mixer, add the eggs, melted butter, cake mix, and milk. Beat on low for about 30 seconds, then turn the mixer up to high for 2 minutes.
Bake the cupcakes at 325 degrees for 14-16 minutes until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Remove the cupcakes from the pan and transfer to a cooling rack. Allow to cool completely.
Dark Chocolate Ganache
Place the dark chocolate chips in a glass bowl.
Pour the heavy cream over the top.
Microwave the mixture on 50% power for 30 seconds.
Remove from the microwave and stir.
Repeat steps 3 and 4 until the chocolate chips are completely melted.
Refrigerate the ganache until it reaches a thick consistency.
When the ganache is cold, place it in the bowl of a stand mixer with a whisk attachment. Whip on high speed until the ganache is the same consistency as buttercream frosting.
