Caramel Apple Pie Filled Cupcakes
Directions 1. Use our Vanilla Baby Cakes cake mix. Mix and bake according to package directions. Add 1-1/2 teaspoons of good quality cinnamon. 2. Clip a corner on the two-pound pack of apple pie filling and squeeze about 1/3 ounce through the top of each baked cupcake. If you use apple pie filling, load a pastry bag equipped with a star tip. 3. Make the frosting with butter, not shortening. Add the caramel flavor to taste.
These are scrumptious, filled cupcakes with an apple pie filling or apple pastry filling. (We recommend apple pastry filling.A pastry filling is more concentrated, has more flavor, and a little pastry filling balances better in a cupcake.) It’s topped with caramel frosting.

4. After the cupcakes are baked, frost them with the caramel buttercream frosting. 5. Use the premade pastry filling or apple pie filling and fill the cupcakes. Press the end of the bag or a star tip through the frosting to the center of each cupcake and squeeze to deposit the filling. As you pull the tip from the cupcake, put a little swirled of filling on top of the cup covering the hole. 6. Garnish your filled cupcakes with chopped nuts or a drizzle of cinnamon or caramel sauce.
