okay, so I succumbed to watching Cupcake Wars with my sis while over visiting last weekend and I have to admit I was pretty interested in some of those unique flavor combos! I'm no scratch cake mixer either, Betty Crocker is just fine with me.

so I'm making cupcakes and thought I'd throw in a little twist ala inspiration from Cupcake Wars.
Do you have any 'altered' cake mix recipes to share?
Peanut Butter Cup-Cakes = milk chocolate mix. plop a mini Reece's PB cup in the center after you pull from the oven. frost with yet more milk chocolatey goodness and you've got a chocolate coma waiting to happen!
Lemon Cream = lemon mix with fresh lemon zest and a little squeeze of juice. mix a bit of fresh lemon zest with cream cheese frosting. Pretty when sprinkled with sugar crystals.

I have never heard of cupcake wars. I did watch Masterchef last night and they had a cupcake challenge. Some interesting cupcakes. I do like your idea of Peanut butter cup cupcakes..I think I have to try that!
