Ingredients

Cupcakes:

  • 1 box French Vanilla Cake Mix
  • 1 cup Water
  • 3 Eggs
  • cup Vegetable Oil

Raspberry Filling:

  • 6 oz Frozen Raspberries
  • 1 tablespoon Corn Starch
  • 1 tablespoon Granulated Sugar More if you like it sweeter

To Assemble:

  • 16 oz Vanilla or Cream Cheese Frosting
  • 4 tablespoon Lingonberry Syrup or any red color fruit syrup
  • Candy Eyes

Instructions

Cupcakes:

  • Preheat the oven to 350F. Line a cupcake pan with cupcake liners. 
  • In a large bowl, mix the cake mix, water, eggs and oil until fully combined. 
  • Fill ⅔ of each cupcake liner and bake in the oven for 12-14 minutes until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.  (You might need to bake a dozen of cupcakes at a time) 
  • Take the cupcakes out of the oven and let them cool completely. 

Raspberry Filling:

  • Place all the ingredients in a small pot and stir. Simmer until thickened and creamy. 

Assemble:

  • Using a small knife, carve out a small portion of the top of the cupcakes, set the piece aside. 
  • Using the end of a small spoon, scoop out a little bit of the crumbs so you have room to fill with the raspberry filling. 
  • Fill the cupcake with raspberry filling. Place the "cap" back on the top and  pipe the frosting onto the cupcakes. 
  • Place the eye candies on the cupcakes and drizzle with lingonberry syrup.
