Cherry Filled Pineapple Cupcakes
2009 April 27
I guess I have been in a pineapple mood lately! When I made the Upside Down Sunshine Cake the other day, I only used half the cake mix. I decided to use the other half to make these fun cupcakes. The house smelled quite tropical with the smells of pineapples and cherries baking in the oven. To make these cupcakes, mix a box of pineapple cake mix according to the instructions, and then divide it among the liners in a cupcake pan. Then, drop a rounded teaspoon of cherry pie filling into the middle of each cupcake. Bake the cupcakes at 350 degrees for 25 minutes. Top the cupcakes with vanilla frosting and a cherry! ENJOY!
This is such a great idea! I can just imagine how amazing it smelled!
They look delicious, Megan!!
Awh, so cute and delicious looking!
What a fun surprise inside – my kids would love it!

I could eat cherry pie filling with a spoon!! How much better in a cupcake!! GREAT IDEA!!!

i have a confession: i don’t like cherries. weird, i know. *but*, i think this would be just as tasty with strawberry filling. yum!

Pineapples and cherries. You can close your eyes and pretend you’re eating a pina colada, without the coconut of course. Great recipe.

Nothing like a filled cupcake! I’m already excited about the cupcake alone, but then to find a surprise in the middle is always a treat.
