Categories     Dessert

Time 45m

Yield 18

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 box Betty Crocker™ Super Moist™ cake mix (any chocolate flavor; I used Betty Crocker™ Super Moist™ triple chocolate fudge cake mix)
1/2 cup vegetable oil
3 large eggs
1 bag mini pretzels
1 1/4 cups water
1 jar caramel sauce (or you can make your own)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F and prepare cupcakes according to package directions. Cool completely before proceeding.
  • In a piping bag, add thick stripes of caramel to the sides of the bag before spooning in the chocolate frosting. This will give a caramel swirl when the frosting is piped onto the cupcake. Pipe frosting onto all cupcakes.
  • Crush mini pretzels to sprinkle over the top of the frosting. Garnish each cupcake with one whole mini pretzel.
