Oh Yes...this is the season when our homes get inundated by the aromas and tastes of Candy Corn. So much of it, that by the end of October I personally don't want to see one more of these sugary treats which seem to have endless shelf life as well!
Our friend "Bones" here not only ate a whole lot of the sweet treat but loved it so much that decided to take it with him to his final resting place!
Of course, his cause of death was Candy Corn Overdose, to the point that when his flesh decomposed...it turned into Candy Corn Stew.....after all my friends, ...we are what we eat...right?
His coffin reflects his love for the season as well, Spiced Carrot with a hint of Apple Cider...at the end...he realized it's a good thing to have veggies and fruits in your Diet...a little too late I'll say....
Do you love Candy Corn as much as "Bones"? What's your favorite Halloween Candy....in other words, what't that thing you secretly raid out of your kids's trick or treat loot?...me? M&M's...I'm addicted to them and I constantly keep a little bag in my purse, just in case of a Zombie Apocalypse or something like that!
Thank You so much for attending Bones trip to the after life! Please join us again to more Halloween Food Fun and remember that everything tastes better with a Pinch of Love....and lots of Candy Corn.."Bones"!
Besitos,
Lizy
Death by Candy Corn Carrot Cake
Ingredients:
1 box Carrot Cake
(all the ingredients necessary to make it BUT...replace the amount called for water with Apple Cider)
6 oz Candy Corn
1 Cup Cream
1 TBSP Butter
1 TBSP Vanilla Pudding or Cornstarch
Directions:
Heat oven at 350 degrees. Follow baking instructions. If you are baking these particular coffins you get 12, you can also bake a regular cake, cut it in little pieces and "bury your little piece" in the Candy Corn Stew.
For the Candy Corn Stew, on medium heat add cream, candy corn and pudding. Stir constantly until candy corn is melted. Add your pudding or cornstarch until thickened. Remove from heat and pour some of the mix on each coffin. Decorate with "bones" if you want! Serve warm, room temperature or cold.
Have a glass of milk handy, believe me you're going to need it, and enjoy!
Prep Time 10 minutes Baking time 20 minutes Serves 12 coffins

Lizy, this looks so decently delicious! I so LOVE candy corn and can eat it by the handfuls so try not to buy it. I popped over here today because I was worried about you. I thought you had stopped posting. I have been subscribed to your blog since we first started communicating but all of a sudden I have stopped getting e-mails notifying me you have posted. I tried resubscribing, but Feedburner said I already am. Guess all just have to see what happens. Glad you are cooking up a storm and still sharing with all your blog friends. Hugs, Janet
ReplyDeleteHello, I come from the blog of Diana Rambles, I love your blog, very nice and interesting. I leave the link to my blog and if you like we can keep the contact. Besitos.

Thank You Kristin and thank you for the pin!
DeleteWOW. That is awesome. Just out of curiosity what is the skeleton made of?
ReplyDeletePersonally, I can't stand candy corn and I'm not a huge fan of carrot cake. You must be an amazing cook to have made either of those items seem appealing to me in both the photos and recipe.
Darnn, woman, I gotta say that your cake coffin and candy corn stew go perfectly with my meringue bones! I may have to make them both together. The kids will love it!
ReplyDeleteLOL...I love your bones!!! wait...let me say that again...I love your meringue bones!..there, lol!!! Thanks Karen! Hugs
