1
box Betty Crocker® SuperMoist® vanilla cake mix
1
can (14 oz) coconut milk (not cream of coconut)
3
eggs
1 1/2
cups flaked coconut
2
drops light blue liquid food color
1
container Betty Crocker® Whipped fluffy white frosting
1
tube (4.25 oz) Betty Crocker® white decorating icing
48
pieces candy corn
1
box (6 oz) fruit-shaped hard candies
  1. Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pans). Place paper baking cup in each of 24 regular-size muffin cups.
  2. In large bowl, beat cake mix, coconut milk and eggs with electric mixer on low speed 30 seconds. Beat on medium speed 2 minutes, scraping bowl occasionally. Divide batter evenly among muffin cups.
  3. Bake 18 to 20 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes; remove cupcakes from pans to cooling racks. Cool completely, about 20 minutes.
  4. Place coconut in resealable food-storage plastic bag. Add food color; seal bag and shake to tint. Frost cupcakes with white frosting. Top with blue coconut. Decorate cupcakes to look like monsters, using decorating icing to attach candy corn for horns, banana fruit candies for mouths and other fruit candies for eyes.
