This I found over on "Happier than a Pig in Mud" blog and it looks so scrumpious I had to share with you...where I also learned about a wonderful gadget that I bought called a cupcake corer Now this little tool pushes the cupcake right out and leaves a hole just big enough to fill with your favorite filling!! Yummy...and who doesn't love cupcakes??
Cherries!!!
This recipe is from Food.com. I love almond so this has to be the greatest taste .........
Almond Cupcakes 3/4 C butter, room temp
1 1/2 C sugar
2 eggs
1 1/2 tsp almond extract
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
2 1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
2 1/2 C flour
1 1/4 C milk
-Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
-Cream butter and sugar, add eggs and extract. Add the rest and beat till smooth.
-Fill cupcake liners 2/3 full, this makes approximately 24 cupcakes.
-Bake approximately 20 minutes or until the top is golden brown and springs back when touched.
-Cool completely.
-Then I used my corer, and spooned cherry pie filling into the centers of the cupcakes, two cherries fit in each cupcake!
-Frost as desired.
I've never seen a cupcake cored, but it sounds like a great idea. Looks good enough to eat.
