Hole in One Cupcakes!!

What do you get if you cut a hole in a cupcake and fill it with a Lindt white chocolate truffle?   A perfect Father’s Day treat!!!

These are guaranteed to make any golf-loving Father smile on his special day!  This one’s for you dad!  I can’t wait to see you in 2 weeks and go “golfing” (aka losing cute golf balls in ponds).

How is such incredible cuteness created, you ask?  EASY!  Make a chocolate cupcake, cut a hole in the top, and pop a Lindt white chocolate truffle inside!

How fun and easy is that?  Here are the details (Printable recipe)

INGREDIENTS:

• One boxed chocolate cake mix (plus oil, water and eggs to make according to package)
• One tub of white frosting
• One container (about 1 cup) of green sugar sprinkles
• 24 Lindt White chocolate Truffles (I got 2 (5.1oz) bags that each had 12 truffles)

DIRECTIONS:

• Make cake according to package and divide evenly into 24 cupcake liners placed in muffin tins.
• Bake according to package.
• Use a cupcake corer or a small knife (use a corer to get that perfectly round cut!) to cut a hole in the center of each cupcake.
• Use a knife to carefully frost the top of each cupcake around the hole.
• Press top of frosted cupcake into green sugar to coat it.
• Place a truffle into “hole”.

• Place a flag in each cupcake- you can print these on heavy paper and use double-sided tape to secure them to toothpicks.  Here are 2 files- Happy Father’s Day, and Blank (write your own message) flags.

My thoughts: I’ve used a cupcake corer on so many cupcakes to add fillings, and the last time I did it, this idea popped into my head!  I wasn’t sure how it would turn out, but as soon as I coated my 1st cupcake in that green sugar I knew it would be perfect!  Happy Father’s Day to all the dads out there- especially mine!!!!
