Black Forest Cupcakes
While we were in Germany before our Viking River Cruise we visited the Black Forest and spent two days exploring. We fell in love with this region of Germany! One of the highlights of the trip was having Black Forest Cake in the Black Forest! Inspired by this visit today we are sharing these delicious Black Forest Cupcakes Recipe! HELLO YUM!
The Black Forest is truly a magical place to visit. Somehow it was so magical that my dear husband convinced me we needed to bring a cuckoo clock home. I honestly was not over the top excited at the idea of a clock that chirps on the hour. After a few weeks, I am slowly but surely enjoying the cuckoo clock. When it goes off I think back to the Black Forest and our amazing time exploring the region. Don't tell John, though, I still like to make him think he needs to convince me to love the clock.
The clock shop where we bought our cuckoo clock had this giant cuckoo clock outside. Since we were there in the winter it was sadly turned off but they said that most of the pieces move when it hits the hour.

Black Forest Cupcakes Recipe
Ingredients
- Chocolate cake mix
- Eggs
- Cherry Pie Filling
- Chocolate Icing
Toppings
- Chocolate sprinkles
- Maraschino cherries
Equipment Needed
Microwave Silicone cover - I swear by these lid covers to help prevent butter splatters when melting butter in the microwave. I have had way too many butter explosions while baking. These lid covers help keep the butter in the bowl and not on the roof of your microwave.
Hand Mixer/Stand Mixer - You can mix this with either a hand mixer or your stand mixer.
Cupcake Pan - We use a 12 muffin pan for this recipe.
Heat resistant potholders - A couple of years ago we had a fire scare when we didn't realize we had turned a burner on and a cloth potholder caught fire. Thankfully we walked by the kitchen and saw the smoke and were able to get it out ourselves. Since then we have only used these heat-resistant potholders.
