Cream filled cupcakes

So I went with the concept of the cream filled cupcake, but since I lacked pre-made frosting, and I was talked into making substitutions, this is the product.

As you can see, I did use a chocolate cake- but I got milk chocolate, not devil's food. And instead of a vanilla frosting this is peanut butter frosting.

My verdict: there should be a contrasting flavor in the middle vs on the top. I do love me some chocolate and peanut butter though. So really not that bad, but maybe a creamier center? or a raspberry cream center? Tim came to a similar conclusion.

I think when we go back to flag next week, I will pick up some devil's food cake and try again.

  1. I'm waiting for Hubster to get home before doing the taste test. Check my blog for the verdict. BTW, how did you get the filling into the cupcake? I used a big size piping tip.

  2. I used a long piping tip, shoved it into the cupcake, then squeezed the piping bag as I pulled up out of the cupcake. I think that's how you're supposed to do it... I haven't heard a better suggestion.
