Caramel Apple Pie Cupcakes

There are too few bite-sized pies in the world, don’t you think? Introducing caramel-filled cupcake with serious apple pie flavor! Problem solved.

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350ºF. Place 24 paper liners in muffin pan(s).
  2. Combine cake mix with water, oil and eggs in large bowl.
  3. Beat with an electric mixer at medium speed for 2 minutes. Spoon batter evenly into prepared pan(s).
  4. Bake 17 to 20 minutes or until toothpick inserted in centre comes out clean. Cool completely on wire rack.
  5. Cut a shallow circle from the top of each cupcake, leaving a ¼-inch border around the cake. (This border is the pie crusts.)
  6. Fill circles evenly with apple pie filling.
  7. Blend frosting and caramel in medium bowl. Pipe frosting across apples to form a lattice and around the edges to form crust.
