Snickers Cupcakes
- FOR THE CAKE:
- 1 box Devil's Food Cake Mix, 16-18 Ounce Box
- 1 package Jello Instant Chocolate Pudding Mix (3.9 Oz Box)
- 1 cup Sour Cream
- 1 cup Vegetable Oil
- 4 whole Eggs, Beaten
- 1/2 cups Milk
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla
- 1-1/2 cup Chocolate Chips
- 18 whole Bite Size Snickers Bars, Unwrapped
- FOR THE FROSTING:
- 2 cups Brown Sugar
- 1/2 cups Butter
- 1/2 cups Milk
- 4 cups Powdered Sugar
- 12 whole Bite Size Snickers Bars, Unwrapped
- Line muffin/cupcake pan(s) with paper liners. Recipe makes 18. Preheat oven to 350 F.
- In a large bowl mix together all of the cake ingredients, except Snickers. Spoon or pour cupcake batter into cupcake pan. Stuff one mini Snickers in the center of each muffin, using a spatula to make sure Snickers is covered with cupcake batter.
- Bake cupcakes for about 23 to 28 minutes (on the longer side, up to 5 minutes longer of what is on the back of the instructions for the devil's food cake mix) or until cupcakes seem set. Unfortunately, the toothpick test doesn't work since there's a Snickers bar in the middle! When done remove the pan(s) from the oven and allow cupcakes to cool before frosting.
- To make frosting, mix brown sugar, butter and milk in a medium saucepan over medium heat until butter melts. Once butter melts, increase heat to medium high and let it boil for about 2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in powdered sugar.
- Chop 9 to 12 mini Snickers in a blender or food processor.
- Frost cupcakes with frosting and top with crumbled Snickers.
