Easy Peasy Applesauce Spice Cupcakes NOT Gluten Free


First of all,
thank you for all the positive feedback
from my pet peeve post yesterday.
You are the best!!!!

I needed to use up a SPICE CAKE MIX that was hanging around my pantry. It's always fun to throw together A TREAT.
Basically, I am a lazy person and I was out of vegetable oil. I did not want to go to the store. I improvised. I can always improvise especially when MyHero wants to know how much something cost.
Here's the yummy result of my little deviation from the norm.
How did I get from HERE
to HERE?
I dumped the cake mix in my mixer bowl. Then I added the following:
I'll give you the recipe at the end
Then I baked those babies up and frosted them with BUTTER CREAM FROSTING.
Now if you all are still frosting your cupcakes with a knife or spatula (like I did for 50 years) let me just say right now. You are CRAZY working too hard.
I cut the tip off a baggie and fill it with FROSTING. Snip the end off and pipe it onto the cupcake
Here's an easy way to fill the baggie. Stand it up in a tall glass. Pull the edges down over the glass. Fill with frosting and the shut the top. You probably already knew that trick, didn't you?
These are SOOO good they just melt in your mouth and land right on your hips. You will LOVE them. Trust me. AND They are a snap to fix fast. If you put them under a dome the rugrats grandkids won't eat them BECAUSE they are afraid touch the dome for fear of breaking it. Am I smart of what? What?
So...there you have it. Here's the recipe:
APPLESAUCE SPICE CUPCAKES Preheat oven to 350
1 Super Moist Spice Cake Mix 2 eggs 1/3 cup mayo 1 Tablespoon vanilla (nuts if desired)
Mix above ingredients until well mixed. I did 2 minutes in the mixer. I added nuts to half the batch Some idiot one does NOT like nuts. Spoon into cupcake pans. I always use liners in mine. Bake 15-20 minutes until a toothpick comes out clean when you test it. Cool on rack Frost with Buttercream Frosting or Cream Cheese Frosting. (I was out of Cream Cheese-Darn it) 1/2 cup butter-beat until creamy 3 cups confectioners sugar Cream or milk to make it spreadable -sorry I never measure 1 Tablespoon vanilla.
Frost and eat. Feed them to your friends.
Remember my motto? The more they eat--the fatter they get---the skinnier you look next to them -- uh huh!
Have a GREAT day!
Oh- wait- gotta show you something. My oldest son
gave me a dozen monogrammed restaurant style napkins for Christmas
He did good, huh? I might leave them to him in the will.
