Made these for bible study one evening. I think I would buy 2 cans of cherry pie filling, just so that I had enough to put inside & on top of the cupcakes next time. I felt like the cake was a little dry, but that might have been because I used German Chocolate cake mix. I would make these again.

Oh-so-yummy and impressive looking! I agree it's important to get your proportions right on these. I found that 1 1/2 tablespoons cake batter, followed by 1 1/2 teaspoons each of the cream cheese mix and cherry pie filling gave me the best size cupcakes. I got rave reviews on these - thank you!

These are yummy, but a bit tricky to make correctly. It's difficult to get the right ratio of cake batter, cream cheese mixture, and cherries without making the cupcakes too large. These were a bit messy to eat, but I would definitely make them again. They are tasty!

I have made these twice and had good reviews at work and home. I followed most of the recipe but instead of using the the cool whip for icing I used premade cream cheese icing which i found stored nicely overnight. I also used an ice cream scoop to put the cake filling into the cupcake holders - worked like a charm. I filled it 3/4 of the way so the filling wasn't to far on the bottom to make it soft and wasn't to close to the top to make it pop off when you are trying to unwrap it to eat. Thanks for the recipe, it sure has became one of my favorites

Was a big hit when I made this for friends. Pretty easy to do and tasted great. I do recommend that you have napkins available though. The filling can surprise people.

These are so yummy! I found that putting 2 TBS of cake batter in initially is too much, I had some major overflow on the first batch. I cut back a little and ended up with perfect cupcakes. I didn't top with the coolwhip and cherries until they were ready to be eaten just to keep the whipped cream from getting that crusty stiffness. These are so tasty and a nice change from a regular old fashioned cupcake.

I made these for valentine's day for our family, wanted a treat, but not the sugar. OMG.. they are great. I followed the suggestion of making the light cake version, but also used a jar of pitted sour cherries thickened with tapioca and sweetened with splendia instead of the pie filling. We didnt even bother putting any kind of cool whip on the top, as they were fantastic just as they were.

I tried to make mini-cupcakes. The "cheesecake" mixture didn't taste like cheesecake. I added some sugar and it hardly tasted better. And the cupcakes just tastes like box mix chocolate cake. They fell apart when I attempted to take them out. NEVER MAKE THIS RECIPE IN A MINI-CUPCAKE PAN.

THESE WERE EXCELLENT!!!!! My husband, who is not even a chocolate fan, devoured these. I prepared the boxed cake per the directions, but instead of 1/2 cup oil, i did 1 tablespoon and added 1/2 cup applesauce (SO MOIST!). I also added about a 1/2 cup strong coffee to my cake mix batter to enhance the chocolate flavor, or kahlua would be good i bet as well. Then when the cupcakes were finished, i made my own whipped cream and sprinkled tiny semi-sweet choc chips on top along with the cherry pie filling. Seriously, BETTER than bakery cupcakes! To die for when they are COLD and have settled in the fridge over night. Watch people's faces when they try these! I am also going to try a spice cake mix with the cream cheese filling and apple pie filling drizzled with caramel sauce! YUMMM!
