MMMMMMM. Jelly-filled cupcakes (a la Hungry Girl). Mix 2 cups of yellow cake mix, 1/3 cup or one individual container of no-sugar added applesauce, 1 cup of water and 1/2 tsp. baking powder. THATS IT!!
Bake at 350 for between 20-30 minutes. I made them in a pan because I have no muffin tins - so they took longer. But wow, these babies are very moist and really amazing. Then for the "jelly-filled" part, I blended together strawberry preserves and reduced fat cream cheese and put that mixture into a zip lock bag and squeezed it into the cakes so they were filled up with deliciousness. Plain strawberry preserves would have been tasty too, but I couldn't resist making a little creamy strawberry icing.
The real stats are 92 calories per cupcake without the cream cheese. You'll never miss the eggs and oil!
I just made them, Ash. What an easy fix for little munchkins and their moms. Thanks for sharing.
