CUPCAKE SURPRISE

I made these for a school carnival, they turned out great. I did not need to frost them. To do something different, divide cream cheese filling into 4 different parts and tint each part a different color. Feel free to get creative with the surprises!

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h25m

Yield 18

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 box Betty Crocker™ Super Moist™ yellow cake mix
Water, vegetable oil and eggs called for on cake mix box
1 cup M&M's® chocolate candies
18 flat-bottom ice cream cones
3 containers (12 oz each) Betty Crocker™ Whipped strawberry frosting
1/4 cup Betty Crocker™ candy decors

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350°F (or 325°F for dark or nonstick pans). Place paper baking cup in each of 18 regular-size muffin cups; place mini paper baking cup in each of 18 mini muffin cups. Make cake batter as directed on box. Spoon batter evenly into regular and mini muffin cups.
  • Bake mini cupcakes 10 to 14 minutes, regular cupcakes 15 to 20 minutes (18 to 24 minutes for dark or nonstick pan), or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Remove from pans to cooling racks. Cool completely, about 30 minutes.
  • If ice cream cone holder is unavailable, make a holder for the cones by tightly covering the tops of 2 empty square or rectangular pans (at least 2 to 2 1/2 inches deep) with heavy-duty foil. With sharp knife, cut 18 "stars" in foil, 3 inches apart, by making slits about 1 inch long.
  • Place about 2 teaspoons candies in each ice cream cone. Remove paper cups from cupcakes. For each cone, frost top of 1 regular cupcake with frosting; turn upside down onto a cone. Frost bottom (now the top) of cupcake. Place mini cupcake upside down on frosted regular cupcake; frost side of regular cupcake and entire mini cupcakes completely (it's easiest to frost from the cone toward the top). Sprinkle with candy decors. Push cone through foil opening in cone holder; the foil will keep it upright. Store loosely covered.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cupcake recipe: Opt for a recipe that yields moist and flavorful cupcakes, such as the classic vanilla or chocolate cupcake. Ensure the recipe has a balanced ratio of ingredients and avoid over-mixing the batter to prevent dense cupcakes.
  • Prepare your cupcake pan and oven: Grease or line your cupcake pan with paper liners to prevent sticking. Preheat your oven to the specified temperature before baking the cupcakes to ensure even cooking.
  • Fill cupcake liners appropriately: Fill the cupcake liners about 2/3 full to allow for expansion during baking. Avoid overfilling the liners, as this can lead to overflowing and uneven baking.
  • Bake cupcakes until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: The baking time may vary depending on the recipe and oven, so keep a close eye on the cupcakes during baking. Over-baking can result in dry and crumbly cupcakes.
  • Let cupcakes cool completely before decorating: Allow the cupcakes to cool completely before frosting or decorating to prevent the frosting from melting and becoming runny.
  • Be creative with your decorations: Use a variety of frosting flavors and colors, sprinkles, candies, or even edible images to decorate your cupcakes and make them visually appealing.
  • Store cupcakes properly: Store unfrosted cupcakes at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 2 days. Frosted cupcakes should be refrigerated and consumed within 3-4 days to maintain their freshness and prevent spoilage.

Conclusion:

With careful preparation, attention to detail, and a touch of creativity, you can create delicious and visually stunning cupcake surprises that will delight your family and friends. Experiment with different flavor combinations, frosting techniques, and decorations to find your signature cupcake recipe. Remember to practice patience and precision throughout the baking and decorating process, and most importantly, have fun!
