With the arrival of fall, pumpkins and apples seem to be inspiration for treats around our house. These adorable cupcakes taste as good as they look. You might even do a double take trying to figure out if these are caramel apples or not.
Caramel Apple Cupcakes
1 box spice cake mix
2 large eggs
1 cup sour cream
1/2 cup milk
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 cup peeled, cored, and chopped Granny Smith apple
35 caramels
1/4 cup evaporated milk
1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts
Preheat oven to 350 F. Combine cake mix, eggs, sour cream, milk and vegetable oil in mixer. Scrape bowl then mix 3 minutes. Add chopped apple and stir.
Pour batter into paper-lined muffin pans about 2/3 full. Bake 18-20 minutes or until wooden toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Remove and cool on wire rack.
Meanwhile, combine caramels and milk in small saucepan over low heat, stirring until melted and smooth.
Spread caramel atop cupcakes trying not to touch liners. Sprinkle with nuts. Insert stick into center of each cupcake.
This is quite unique but it does looks scrumptious. Thank you for sharing this recipe, I'm surely going to make a couple of these caramel apple cupcakes when I make my favorite candy apples for my kids.
ReplyDeleteYou a very interesting candy apple recipe. It's worth trying. Thanks for sharing it! I just hope my children won't overeat them because I don't want them to get emergency dental care . Too much sweets is not good for their teeth.
ReplyDeleteI made this over the weekend and gave it as a prize since my kids developed their dental hygiene.

As a dentist, I highly suggest that you get regular dental check ups if you have a sweet tooth.

I just had some affordable dental implants installed on my teeth and I fear that they would easily get damaged if I eat too much sweets. I should wait for a week or two before I can go back to my normal eating habits.
ReplyDeleteIt makes me crave for sweets. Although I am taking up atlanta dentistry, where we always talk baout taking care of our teeth, it makes me want to munch in a bunch of these now.
