Zombie cakes!


Another zombie day has come and gone, and this one was extra fabulous, because of some great friends, greater zombie movies, bloody marys, and gingerfoxxx's special zombie cakes (yum) here's the super easy recipe anytime you need to impress the undead-










Ingredients

  • 3 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese (i do one full fat, and 2 1/3 reduced fat. i have a figure to maintain.)
  • 1 cup white sugar
  • 5 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 8 ounces sour cream
  • 1 cup white sugar (another one)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (or, you can accidentally pour the whole bottle in like i did. extra vanilla-y!)

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line cupcake pans with paper cupcake liners.
  2. In a medium bowl, cream together the cream cheese and 1 cup of sugar. Stir in the eggs one at a time, then mix in the vanilla. Spoon into cupcake pans to fill about 2/3 to 3/4 full.
  3. Bake for 30 minutes in the preheated oven, until golden brown. Remove from the oven and cool for 5 to 10 minutes. (they will sink in and look like little cups. don't freak out.)
  4. To make the sour cream topping, whisk together the sour cream, 1 cup sugar, and vanilla until smooth. Spoon into the well on the top of each cupcake.
  5. Return to the oven and bake for an additional 5 to 7 minutes, until set. Set cupcake pans on racks to cool, do not remove cupcakes from the pan until they are completely cool. For a finishing touch, put cherries on top. they look like the kind of bloody mess that would attract zombies. but in fact, they taste like cherries.

enjoy! but not too many fatties :D
