Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 10

3/4 cup whipping cream
1 1/2 cups semisweet chocolate chips
1 box Betty Crocker™ Super Moist™ devil's food cake mix
1 box (4-serving size) chocolate fudge instant pudding and pie filling mix
1 1/4 cups water
1/2 cup vegetable oil
4 eggs

Steps:

  • In 1-quart saucepan, heat whipping cream over medium-high heat until hot but not boiling. Stir in chocolate chips until melted and mixture is smooth. Refrigerate about 1 hour, stirring occasionally, until thick.

Place 1/4 cup batter in each muffin cup. Spoon 1 tablespoon cold chocolate mixture on top of batter in center of each cup.
  • Bake 20 to 23 minutes or until top springs back when lightly touched. Cool 1 minute. Carefully remove from pan; place on cooking parchment paper. Cool 10 minutes. Frost with chocolate frosting. Just before serving, sprinkle with powdered sugar. Garnish with strawberry slices. Serve warm. Store loosely covered.

These cupcakes were a bit dry, but the chocolate flavor was still good. The filling was gooey and decadent, but it was a bit too sweet for my taste. I would probably make them again, but I would use a different recipe next time.

I was disappointed with these cupcakes. The chocolate flavor was bland and the filling was not gooey at all. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.
