Brownie Surprise Cupcakes
ingredients
  • 1
    21-oz. package fudge brownie mix
  • 15
    miniature-size chocolate-coated caramel-topped nougat bars with peanuts, or 15 dark chocolate-covered mint creams
  • Canned vanilla frosting
  • Small multicolored decorative candies (optional)
directions

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degree F. Line fifteen 2-1/2-inch muffin cups with paper bake cups. Prepare the fudge brownie mix according to package directions. Spoon 1 tablespoon of the batter into each paper bake cup. Place a miniature-size candy bar or mint cream in each cup. Divide the remaining batter among the cups.

2. Bake in the preheated oven for 22 minutes. Let cool in pans on a wire rack. Cupcakes may dip slightly in center. Frost with vanilla frosting and, if desired, sprinkle with decorative candies. Makes 15 cupcakes.

Test Kitchen Tip: If all of the cupcakes do not fit in the oven at one time, refrigerate the unbaked extras until the first ones finish baking.

These are very easy to make and everyone really likes them. I made regular sized cupcakes and some mini's using 1/4 of a mini candy on the inside.

i also made these for work & 2 co-workers told me these are the best cupcakes they have ever had. they were EXTREMELY easy to make. i did use the mini snickers inside & it really created a moist center which was surrounded by a chewy outside, and a slightly crunchy bottom from the peanuts. so good. will be making again soon!

These are so easy to make. I substituted mini peanut butter cups and mini mints and took them to work. They were a hit. Everyone loved them and they went fast.
