Here’s a very interesting way to enjoy cupcakes that taste like caramel apples. These cupcakes are sweet and ooze caramel out of the top. My kids love making these and since they are os easy to make, you can let them help out. You can make your own caramel but I like to just buy the pieces and melt them..much easier and a quicker clean up.
