    1      package       Cake mix -- - gold, spice or whi
      1/2  cup           California dried figs -- - stemmed
                         Soft white butter icing
 
 Make cake according to package instructions, folding in figs which have been
 cut into small pieces.  Fill cup cake pans 2/3 full.  Bake 25 minutes at 375
 F.  To make Spooks, turn cup cakes upside down.  Place a dab of icing in the
 center, and set whole California dried fig upright with the stem standing
 erect at the top.  Let stand until firm, then ice the whole thin with soft
 white butter icing.  Let icing flow around the base of the cake to resemble
 a sheet.  Mark off slits for eyes.  Weird-looking; wonderful-tasting!
