Creme Filled Cupcakes

A patients wife brought some cupcakes to the hospital to share one day.  They were SO yummy that I went home and created my own!

So here is Jennifer's Version of Yumminess:

You will need:
A) 2 Cake Mix Box mixes upped like instructions call for, using paper lining, to make Cup Cakes. You can use any flavor or cake mix, I prefer Chocolate, but any work!

B) Filling Recipe:
  • 1 cup Milk
  • 1 instant Pudding Mix (any flavor, I use Vanilla for contrast sake)
  • 1/4 cup Powdered Sugar
  • 1 8oz of Cream Cheese
  • Blend with hand mixer until smooth.  Stir in an 8oz tub of Cool Whip.  Refrigerate until needed, though it doesn't need it before you add to the cupcake.
C) Topping Recipe:
  •  8 oz Cream Cheese
  • 1 cup Butter–softened
  • 6 cups Powdered Sugar
  • 1 instant Pudding Mix
  • 1 cup Milk
  • With Hand Mixer, blend Cream Cheese and Butter until Smooth, Add Powdered Sugar and Pudding Mix blending the Milk in a little at a time until all is smooth and thick!
  • I have also added just a touch of a flavored extract (like Lemon, Peppermint, Mint Etc) for a fun event!
D) Any Topping, sprinkles, Sugar & Food Coloring etc you would like to make it festive.

HOW TO ASSEMBLE:
1) Follow Cake mix box Recipe and cook, let them cool completely! (From Item A above)

2) With a knife, cut off the tops (don't ruin the tops as you will put them back on).  Add a spoonful of the "Filling" Recipe. (Item B above)


3) Put the top back onto correct cupcake!


















4) Using any method you would like, put on the "Topping" Recipe (Item C above).  I have used a plastic bag with a tiny corner out to make swirls, use a spoon and add a large dollop on top. Be creative!












5) Using Item D festive up your cupcakes.

6) Refrigerate until you serve them.
