CREAM FILLED CHOCOLATE CUPCAKES
A great 'surprise' in the middle of these delicious treats. Makes a great classroom treat for your birthday child, especially for the kids that LOVE the frosting and usually just lick it off the top. Use food coloring for various holidays for an even bigger surprise.

- In a separate container, combine the buttermilk, baking soda, vanilla and eggs. Stir to combine and set aside.
- In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the cocoa powder and stir to combine. Add the boiling water, allow to bubble for a few seconds and then turn off the heat.
- Pour the chocolate mixture over the flour mixture. Stir a few times to cool the chocolate. Pour the buttermilk mixture over the top and stir to combine.

Steps:
- Place oven rack in the center of oven and preheat to 350 degrees. Generously spray the insides of the pans with cooking spray. Set the pans aside. Place the cake mix, milk, melted butter, eggs and syrup in a large mixing bowl. Blend with an electric mixer on low speed for 1 minute. Scrape sides with spatula. Increase the mixer speed to medium and beat 2 minutes more, scraping sides down again if needed. Divide the batter between the molds, about 2 cups in each. Place the insert (which also has been sprayed with cooking spray) inside the bottom mold and make sure the insert overlaps the sides of the mold. Place on a cookie sheet and put in oven. Bake cakes until they spring back when lightly pressed with your finger, about 40 minutes. Remove the pans from the oven and place them on wire racks to cool for 10 minutes. Unmold, then allow them to cool completely, 30 minutes more. If you have time, wrap with plastic wrap and freeze until firm to make it easier to fill and frost the cake. Then fill the cake, put the top on, and frost. I frosted only the top part to make it look like a cupcake. Cream Filling 2 tsp very hot water 1/4 tsp salt 1 (7 oz) jar marshmallow cream 1/2 cup shortening 1/2 cup powdered sugar 1/2 tsp vanilla Dissolve the salt in the hot water and allow to cool. Whip the marshmallow cream, shortening, powdered sugar, and vanilla until it begins to get fluffy. Add the salty water and whip well. Quick Vanilla Buttercream Icing 3 cups confectioners' sugar 1 cup softened butter 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 to 2 tablespoons whipping cream Gel food color, if desired In a standing mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, mix together sugar and butter. Mix on low speed until well blended and then increase speed to medium and beat for another 3 minutes. Add vanilla and cream (and gel food color, if desired). Continue to beat on medium speed for 1 minute more, adding more cream if needed for desired consistency. I used a large star tip to pipe the frosting on the cake.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter two 6-cup (each with a 1-cup capacity) jumbo muffin pans; dust with cocoa powder to coat, tapping out excess. In a medium bowl, whisk together cocoa, flour, baking powder, soda, and salt.
- Using an electric mixer, beat butter and sugar until light. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. On low speed, add half the flour mixture, followed by sour cream, ending with remaining flour mixture; mix just until incorporated (do not overmix).
- Divide batter among prepared muffin cups. Bake until a toothpick inserted in center of a cupcake comes out clean, 25 to 30 minutes, rotating pans halfway through baking. Cool in pans, 5 minutes; remove cupcakes and cool, right side up, on a wire rack.
- Meanwhile, prepare filling: In a medium bowl, whisk marshmallow creme and butter until smooth. Chill until slightly firm, 15 to 30 minutes. Transfer mixture to a heavy-duty resealable plastic bag, and seal; cut off one corner of the bag to make a 1/8-inch opening.
- Using a small melon baller, scoop out center of each cupcake from the bottom, and reserve (you will use this to plug cupcake after filling). Hollow out each cupcake a bit more, discarding crumbs. Insert tip of plastic bag into each cavity, and squeeze to fill; replace plugs. Using remaining filling in plastic bag, decorate top of cupcakes.
CHOCOLATE CREAM-FILLED CUPCAKES WITH FUDGE ICING
This cupcake is an old favorite. It reminds me of the filled cupcakes my mom would buy at the store. I created it when I was 15 for the drama club and color guard bake sales. They were an instant hit and always sold out.

Steps:
- For the chocolate cupcakes: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F and line a 12-cup standard muffin tin with 12 cupcake liners.
- In the bowl of your stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, add the flour, sugar, cocoa, baking powder and salt and mix on low for 30 seconds to combine. Add the oil, melted butter, water, beaten egg and vanilla and mix on low to combine. Scrape the bowl and beater with a rubber spatula and then mix on medium speed for 30 seconds.
- Scrape and fold the batter a few times. Divide the batter into the 12 liners and tap the pan on the counter a few times to release any air bubbles. Bake until a toothpick inserted into the cupcakes comes out with moist crumbs, 22 to 24 minutes. Cool in the pan for 5 minutes before removing to a cooling rack to cool completely.
- Before frosting the cupcakes, cover them lightly with plastic wrap and chill them for 1 hour to make handling easier.
- For the fudge frosting and filling: In the bowl of your stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter on medium-high until very smooth and shiny, 1 to 2 minutes.
- Add the cocoa, sugar, condensed milk, vanilla and salt and blend on low until smooth. With the mixer still on low, add in 1 tablespoon of steaming hot water. Scrape the bowl, then raise the mixer to high speed and beat for 1 minute. Turn the mixer to low and mix for 1 to 2 minutes to smooth out the frosting and reduce air bubbles.
- Transfer 1/3 cup of the fudge frosting to a small bowl and stir in the marshmallow creme.
- Use a paring knife or apple corer to remove a 1-inch wide "plug" of cake in the middle of the bottom of each cupcake, cutting about halfway through.
- Place the cream filling into a small resealable plastic bag and snip off the tip. Pipe the filling into the holes cut out of the cupcakes; use the plugs or scraps of the cake you removed to plug the holes back up.
- Frost the filled cupcakes with the remaining frosting and top with mini chocolate chips if desired. Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
