Caramel Chocolate Surprise Cupcakes

So today I decided to try Duncan Hines new Frosting Creations™!! 
I decided to try the caramel flavor, and what goes better with caramel than chocolate??


  Ingredients:
2 packets of Duncan Hines® Frosting Creations™ Caramel Flavor Mix
2 cans of Frosting Creations™ Frosting Starter
1 Duncan Hines Dark Chocolate Fudge Cake Mix (16.5oz)
1 Cup Water
1/3 Cup Vegetable Oil
3 Large Eggs
24Chocolate caramel filled candies (Milky Ways)
24 Chocolate Covered Pretzels

 
1. Prep: PREHEAT oven to 350°F for metal or glass pans, 325°F for dark or coated pans. Fill two 12-cup muffin pans with paper liners. 
2. Mix: BLEND dry mix, water, oil and eggs in large bowl at low speed until moistened (about 30 seconds). BEAT at medium speed for 2 minutes. POUR batter into muffin pans, press the caramel filled candies into each cupcake, and bake immediately. 
3. Bake: BAKE for 18-21 min. Cake is done when toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. COOL in pan on wire rack for 15 minutes. Cool completely before frosting. 
4. FROST: Pour 1 pack of Duncan Hines® Frosting Creations™ Caramel Flavor Mix into each can of Duncan Hines® Frosting Creations™ Frosting Starter. Stir until evenly blended. Use a piping bag with desired tip, or frosting knife to frost cupcakes. 
5. Garnish each cupcake with a chocolate covered pretzel and enjoy!
