Surprise Chocolate Cherry Muffins

These came out delish! Like mini Black Forrest Cakes!

Prepare the muffin mix according to the package mixing in the teaspoon of almond extract.

Pour enough prepared mix to fill about 1/3 of the muffin cups. Scoop a little of the cherry pie filling on top and in the middle of the layer of mix. Be sure to have at least one cherry and a bit of the gel. Evenly top each muffin with the remaining mix covering the cherry filling.

Ryan eating cherry muffinsBake according to package, about 27 minutes in a preheated 400 degree oven.

I made these for the first time this morning and they came out great! The toddler couldn’t get enough. Next time I think I will spray the muffin papers with a bit of non-stick cooking spray. If you try to remove them when warm they stick a bit.

The pie filling only adds about 40 calories to the whole batch so it doesn’t affect the 1 point value of the muffins. I froze the remaining pie filling for future batches.

@Anonymous - I thought they were pretty comparable to the once you buy in the freezer section. But I always though they were small. ;~)
