Chocolate Cherry Cupcakes (with pictures!)

Looks delicious! You can also use soda with most box cake mixes. Just add one can of soda to your mix and bake, it comes out amazingly. It's an old weight watchers trick, I hear.

would the liquid (soda) need to be reduced to 1/4 cup - the water that is called for in this recipe - I think the pie filling and soda would make the batter too runny...but not sure ...thoughts????

Sounds good - will have to try it!!

Yummy! This is very similar to the Hungry Girl chocolate cupcakes made with a can of pumpkin.
Just a box of devil's food cake mix combined with a regular size can of pumpkin. Here's the link:

Yum Yum Brownie Muffins


(1 Muffin, or 3 minis - 181 calories, 3.5g fat, 37g carbs, 2g fiber, 2g protein -- PointsPlus® value 5*)

This super-simple 2-ingredient recipe is a Weight Watchers Fave!

1 box devil's food cake mix
1 can solid pack pumpkin (15 oz.)

Directions:
Mix the two ingredients together. Don't add anything else that may be mentioned on the box, such as eggs, oil, or water. The mixture will be very thick and you will be tempted to add in other things to make the batter smoother. DO NOT DO THIS AS IT WILL RUIN EVERYTHING! Place batter into muffin tins (or mini muffin tins) lined with paper, or sprayed with non-stick spray. Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes. Makes 12 regular or 36 mini muffins.

Yum!!!! Looks good. Think I'm going to make some this weekend.
Thanks for recipes.

Whenever I have tried using pumpkin in recipes like this, it always turns out rubbery - tastes horrible!- I use pumpkin, not pie filling...any thoughts on what is going wrong? I really like the idea of pumpkin because of its health benefits.thanks!

Looks delicious! And with pinterest now when people put pictures I can pin recipes on my board! I never even thought of that before Thank you for sharing hehe
