Provided by amyjoca

Categories     Desserts     Cakes     Cupcake Recipes     Chocolate

Time 1h10m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 (15.25 ounce) package chocolate cake mix
1 can cherry-flavored cola (such as Cherry Coke®)
2 cups heavy whipping cream
¼ cup confectioners' sugar
1 (12.5 ounce) can cherry pie filling
12 maraschino cherries

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line 12 muffin cups with paper liners.
  • Mix cake mix and cherry-flavored cola together in a bowl until batter is smooth. Spoon batter into prepared muffin cups about 2/3 full.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until muffins spring back when lightly touched, 18 to 23 minutes. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.
  • Beat cream in a large bowl using an electric mixer until frothy; beat in confectioners' sugar until stiff peaks form. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the frosting will form sharp peaks; refrigerate.
  • Cut a well out of the top center of each cupcake and fill with 2 to 3 cherries from the cherry pie filling. Transfer frosting to a piping bag or a plastic bag with 1 corner cut off. Frost cupcakes and top each with a maraschino cherry.

WHISKEY WILD CHERRY COKE GLAZED HAM



Whiskey Wild Cherry Coke Glazed Ham image

Mixing Cherry Coke with whiskey gives this baked ham a sweet and spicy kick. It's the perfecting basting for the savory ham. A flavorful and beautiful ham perfect for any holiday. Make sure to baste the ham every 15 minutes or so. It helps to intensify the flavor and prevents the baked ham from drying out.

Provided by Monica Keleher

Categories     Pork

Time 1h40m

Number Of Ingredients 7

bone-in fully cooked ham
1/2 c whiskey
3 c Cherry Coke
1/2 c brown sugar
whole cloves
salt and pepper
pinch of each: garlic powder, paprika, ground thyme, cayene pepper and oregano

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Score the ham on the diagonal along the fat side and insert whole cloves in the corners of each slice.
  • 2. Season the ham with salt, pepper, and the pinches of each herb. I mix it all together in a rub it all over the ham.
  • 3. Cover the ham with brown sugar and pour 1 cup of Cherry Coke in the bottom of the roasting pan.
  • 4. Cook the ham for about an hour to an hour and a half.
  • 5. Mix the remaining Cherry Coke and whiskey.
  • 6. Baste the ham with the mixture often throughout the cooking process. When you are out of the whiskey and cola mixture, use the pan juices. It will have some of the brown sugar and ham juices yummy. When the ham reads 140 on a thermometer it's done. Take it out of the oven. It should be a gorgeous mahogany color. Tent it for about 15 minutes.
  • 7. Remove the cloves. Slice and serve with candied carrots and garlic mashed potatoes. So so good!
