How to Make Cherry Cupcakes
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 24-cup muffin tin with paper liners.
- Prepare your favorite chocolate cake mix according to package directions, using the specified amounts of eggs, water, and oil.
- Spoon batter evenly into the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
- Remove 24 cherries from a 21-ounce can of cherry pie filling and set aside.
- Spoon a generous teaspoon (approximately 5ml) of the remaining cherry pie filling onto the center of each cupcake batter.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cupcakes cool in the muffin tin for 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once completely cool, frost the cupcakes with your favorite vanilla frosting. Garnish each cupcake with a reserved cherry.
