Black Forest Cupcakes

So I figured out the trick!!  You don't need a party or a wedding or any celebration reason to bake... you just have to work in a department with hundreds of people!!  Two weeks ago, we celebrated "National Cupcake Day" and I decided to test out a stuffed cupcake.  I had seen them stuff cupcakes a billion times on Cupcake Wars but didn't feel like cutting out the core, so I stuffed them prior to baking!!  I HIGHLY recommend these... the inside is sweet and creamy... and as one coworker told me... "It tastes like heaven!"  Tested and approved!!

Black Forest Stuffed Cupcakes
1 pkg chocolate cake mix
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1 egg
3 tbs sugar
1 tbs vanilla extract
20 oz cherry pie filling
chocolate frosting

Prepare cake batter as directed on package.  Beat cream cheese, egg, sugar and vanilla until soft and fluffy.  In cupcake liners, place a spoonful of cake batter, followed by a spoonful of cream cheese mixture and a spoonful of cherry pie filling.  Cover with more cake batter.   Bake about 25 minutes at 350 degrees and ENJOY!!
