Time 1h

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (15.25 ounce) package yellow cake mix
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
⅓ cup vegetable oil
3 eggs
1 cup Mott's® Natural Applesauce
1 cup confectioners' sugar
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 teaspoons milk, or as needed
Chopped pecans for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) or to temperature indicated on cake mix package. Line 24 muffin cups with paper liners.
  • Pour cake mix into bowl and add 2 teaspoons cinnamon. Prepare cake batter (with vegetable oil and eggs) according to package directions.
  • Fill muffin cups 2/3 full, and bake according to package directions (typically 18 to 21 minutes) or until a toothpick inserted into the middle of a cupcake comes out clean.
  • Remove muffin pans from the oven, and allow to cool.
  • Cut a plug about 1-1/2" inches long and 3/4 inch in diameter out of the center of each cupcake. Fill the opening with about 2 teaspoons applesauce or enough to fill hole.
  • Beat together the confectioners' sugar, cinnamon, and milk until mixture can be drizzled. If too thin, add more sugar; if too thick, add more milk. Drizzle icing over top of cupcake. Sprinkle with chopped pecans. Allow icing to dry before serving.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cupcakes didn't rise very much. They still tasted good, though.

These cupcakes were a bit dry for my taste. I think I should have added more applesauce to the batter.
