Today
my daughter and I took some time from our day to make lava cupcakes or
as Emmy would like to say Love Cakes. She loves the gooey center and so
does her father. This is a really quick thing to bake takes less than
twenty minutes for everything and its simple for a one year old to help
with!
Kimmy & Emmy's Love Cakes
aka Chocolate Cupcake with Lava Center
Chocolate Cupcake with Lava Center
- 1 Cup of Betty Crocker
- 1 Large Egg
- 1/2 Cup of Water
- 1/8 Cup of Vegetable oil
- 1/4 Cup of Semi Sweet Chocolate Chips
- 6 Hershey Milk Chocolate Kisses
- Combine cake mix, one egg, water and oil in a large mixing bowl. Be warned this batter already has chocolate chips in it from the mix so there will be lumps. I let my daughter mix with a hand whisk and scrape the edges for her.
- Next, give kid some batter to calm them down because they will get upset they do not have the whisk anymore. I do not give my daughter large amounts i literally stick the back of her baby spoon into the batter. Please do not freak out about salmonella.
- Spray cupcake pan with non stick cooking spray if you're not using cupcake wrappers.
- Pour batter 3/4 of the way in the cupcake tins.
- Bake in the oven at 350 degrees for about six minutes.
- Take semi cooked cupcakes out and place one Hershey kiss in the center.
- Sprinkle about 3 - 5 semi sweet chocolate chip on the Hershey.
- Put cupcakes back into the oven for three more minutes.
- Take out cupcakes to cool.
- ENJOY!
A glass of milk goes perfect with this delicious treat.
