Category: Chocolate, Kids, Holiday, Cakes

 Ingredients List

  • 1 package devil's food cake mix (regular size)
  • 2 teaspoons hot water
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 jar (7 ounces) marshmallow creme
  • 1/2 cup shortening
  • 1/3 cup confectioners' sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon McCormick® Pure Vanilla Extract
  • GANACHE FROSTING:
  • 1 cup (6 ounces) semisweet chocolate chips
  • 3/4 cup heavy whipping cream

 Directions

Prepare and bake cake batter according to package directions, using paper-lined muffin cups. Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks to cool completely.

For filling, in a small bowl, combine water and salt until salt is dissolved. Cool. In a small bowl, beat the marshmallow creme, shortening, confectioners' sugar and vanilla until light and fluffy; beat in the salt mixture.

Cut a small hole in the corner of a pastry or plastic bag; insert round pastry tip. Fill the bag with cream filling. Push the tip through the bottom of paper liner to fill each cupcake.

Place chocolate in a small bowl. In a small saucepan, bring cream just to a boil. Pour over chocolate; whisk until smooth. Cool, stirring occasionally, to room temperature or until ganache reaches a dipping consistency.

Dip cupcake tops in ganache; chill for 20 minutes or until set.

Store in the refrigerator.
