Caramel Brulee Cupcakes

These turned out so yummy!!!  I took them to a business function and everyone was taking extra home with them!

Start out with any basic white cake recipe, either from scratch or mix, substituting Coffee-Mate Creme Brulee liquid for the liquid in your recipe.

 

When your cupcakes are cool,  cut a hole in the middle of the cupcake with a sharp paring knife, cutting at an angle.  

  
Remove the plug. 

  
I filled the cupcakes with Nestle's La Lechera Dulce de Leche caramel. ( I love that stuff!)

  
Then replace the plug and squish down to even out the top 

  
 I made my icing with half butter and half shortening, some vanilla extract, a pinch of salt, and of course powdered sugar.  For the liquid, I used the Creme Brule coffee creamer again, heating it up until very warm, but not boiling.  I don't have exact measurements because I didn't measure!  Sorry!!  I just mix it until it's light and fluffy!! 
 
I added the icing swirl and drizzled with caramel ice cream topping.

    Thanks Diane! I found the caramel in the Mexican food isle of WalMart. I have seen it by the regular condensed milk in some stores also.
