Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour

2 cups sugar

1 teaspoon baking soda

1/2 teaspoon salt

1 cup butter

1 cup water

1/4 cup baking cocoa

1/2 cup sour cream

2 eggs

FROSTING:

1/4 cup butter

3 tablespoons milk

2 tablespoons baking cocoa

2 cups confectioners' sugar

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

18 cream-filled chocolate sandwich cookies

Green and brown decorator's icing or gel

9 cream-filled oval vanilla sandwich cookies

1 cup whipped topping

Pumpkin candies and gummy worms,

Directions

In a mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking soda and salt; set aside. In a saucepan, combine butter, water and cocoa; bring to a boil over medium heat. Add to flour mixture; beat well. Beat in sour cream and eggs.

Pour into a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking pan. Bake at 350° for 35-38 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes.

Meanwhile, in a saucepan, combine butter, milk and cocoa; bring to a boil. Remove from the heat; stir in sugar and vanilla. Pour over warm cake. Crumble chocolate cookies; sprinkle over frosting while still warm. Cool completely.

For tombstone, use icing to decorate vanilla cookies with words or faces; place on cake. For ghosts, make mounds of whipped topping; use icing to add eyes and mouths as desired. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Just before serving, add pumpkins and gummy worms if desired.
