Magic Cupcakes (Cheater Recipe)

This recipe is a nifty "cheater recipe" that I've used for YEARS!!! 

 Basically it is merely a DRY cake mix + a xx ounce tin sack of fruit pie filling + 3 large eggs mixed together (DO NOT follow cake mix instructions on the box). It makes an extremely moist as well as flavorful cupcake as well as it couldn't live easier !!

You tin sack role ANY season dry cake mix as well as ANY season canned fruit pie filling therefore the combinations are endless. Our favorite is chocolate alongside cherry pie filling but we've also thoroughly enjoyed chocolate cake alongside raspberry pie filling, strawberry cake alongside strawberry pie filling, spice cake alongside peach pie filling, as well as yellowish cake mix alongside lemon pie filling (*see greenback below well-nigh white cakes).

STRAWBERRY CUPCAKES


(1) box dry out cake mix (usually well-nigh xx ounces?)
(1) tin sack pre-prepared pie (fruit) filling (usually well-nigh xx ounces?)
(3) large eggs

For the cupcakes posted today, I combined a box of Betty Crocker strawberry cake mix (ignore whatsoever directions on the box) plus a xx ounce tin sack of Wilderness strawberry pie filling summation 3 large eggs. Put everything inwards your mixing bowl as well as rhythm out on medium-high speed for well-nigh two minutes (batter volition live a lilliputian thicker than yous expect). Fill newspaper lined cupcake pans well-nigh 2/3 amount as well as bake at 350° for xx minutes (or till toothpick tests clean). That's it!!! 

 NOTE:* If yous role a white cake mix, stick alongside a low-cal colored pie filling similar peach, or lemon. The darker fruit fillings sense of savor proficient mixed alongside a white cake, but they create an strange color.

NOTE: This recipe industrial plant rattling good for sail cakes, every bit good every bit layer cakes. Just role the toothpick exam for doneness instead of the baking times on the cake mix box. 

IMPORTANT NOTE: After yous take away the cake from the pan, embrace the HOT cake tightly alongside plastic twine as well as allow it cool. Keep the cake wrapped inwards the plastic until yous frost the cake. 

 I practise this measuring alongside ALL of my cakes. It makes a huge difference.
FROSTING

1 loving cup of UNSALTED butter (room temperature)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon almond extract
4 cups powdered sugar
1/4 loving cup milk
food coloring (optional)

Cream the butter alongside an electrical mixer until it gets fluffy. Add everything else as well as rhythm out on medium speed until everything is good mixed, therefore rhythm out on high speed until it is shine as well as fluffy.

ENJOY !!!
