Twix Cupcake

Candy bars are tasty, so why not a cupcake inspired by one?

Cake

Yellow cake mix - prepare as instructed adding 1/4 cup caramel sundae syrup to the batter. 

Frosting

Caramel Chocolate Frosting (I use the Hershey's Cocoa Powder recipe as my guide)

1 stick (1/2 cup) butter or margarine
2/3 cup cocoa powder
3 cups powdered sugar
1/4 cup milk
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 cup caramel sundae syrup

Melt butter.  Stir in cocoa.  Alternately add 1-2 cups of the powdered sugar and enough milk to make frosting relatively thin.  Add vanilla and caramel.  Mix thoroughly and alternately add the rest of the powdered sugar and milk until desired consistency is reached. 

Decorating

Using Wilton tip #1M frost cupcakes swirling frosting inward from outside edge.  Top with chopped Twix bar pieces and drizzle with caramel sundae syrup.
