Pumpkin Snickers Cupcakes with Chocolate Buttercream and Edible Spiderwebs

A quick tip on the spiderwebs: Be sure to work fast or the chocolate will harden. I actually like to work in two batches so if the chocolate does harden before each web can be piped, I can just pop the bowl with remaining chocolate into the microwave a second time to melt again.

  1 ½ teaspoons baking powder
