As American as...

apple pie....cupcakes that is!

This recipe is 100% original.


I started off with a graham cracker crust (graham cracker, butter & sugar).























On top of that goes the apple pie cake batter (butter pecan cake mix, a can of apple pie filling, cinnamon, eggs, vanilla).

















Post baking:























I frosted these with a cinnamon vanilla buttercream.



















It was the first time I had tried the basket weave technique. It was surprisingly simple! I tried to make each cupcake look like a mini apple pie :)

The official score (as rated by my husband) for these cupcakes was a 9/10. I thought they were really good. Very buttery (in a good way) and screamed for a glass of milk. These are for a party this evening, so hopefully everyone else will feel the same!
