My Ding-Dong Cupcakes


The chocolaty goodness cooling

Filling it with creme

Topping it with the icing

The handy dandy carrier

We are ready to go!
I found this recipe in the Taste of Home I got from the cooking school. These cupcakes are SO good. I've eaten 2 already today....going to have to walk tomorrow for sure! Luke still had his camera out from Upward on Saturday, so he took a few shots of me making them!

Creamy Center Cupcakes
1 pkg. devils food cake mix
3/4 c. shortening
2/3 c. powdered sugar
1 c. marshmallow creme
1 tsp. vanilla
2 cans chocolate frosting (I only used one...to use 2 would be TOO much!)

Bake the cake mix according to the directions. I actually changed it a little. It's WAY easy to do and the cake is much better. For the oil (use melted butter instead) and for the water (use milk instead) then add your eggs. Let the cupcakes cool completely on a wire rack.

Mix the shortening, powdered sugar, marshmallow creme, and vanilla together. I used the back of a spoon to split the cupcakes. Then I took a Ziploc bag and filled it with the creme. Then I filled the cupcakes. Top them with the chocolate frosting. They are wonderful. I found this container carrier at Target and loved it!!! Enjoy!
