1 Box (16.5 oz) Duncan Hines Caramel Cake Mix Alt - Yellow Cake Mix & 1/4 cup caramel baking bits.
3 Eggs, Large
1 Cup Water
1/3 Cup Vegetable Oil
1 Box Cheesecake Pudding Mix, Instant
1 Can (21 oz) Apple Pie Filling
1 Tbsp Caramel Topping

Instructions

Pour apple pie filling and caramel topping into a medium bowl. Chop into smaller (bite size or smaller) pieces. I use a pastry cutter. You could use a blender or food processor.
Preheat oven to 350°. Place cupcake liners in muffin pan.
Combine cake mix, pudding mix, eggs, water and vegetable oil and blend for 2-3 minutes. You can use a stand mixer or a hand mixer.
Spoon 2 tbsp batter in cupcake liner. Then add 1 tbsp of apple pie filling. Top off with 1 tbsp of batter. Make sure your batter covers the apple pie filling.
Bake 15-18 minutes or until done.
Let cool 2-3 minutes and then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
OPTIONAL - Let cool 2 hours. Stir frosting and apply to cupcakes. Sprinkle with cinnamon.
