Fall Harvest Cupcakes

I came up with this recipe combining a few of my favorite things, apples, caramel, and nuts! This is a great morning bite with a hot cup of coffee or a sweet snack after dinner! Everyone I shared them with enjoyed the sweet, but not too sweet, fall flavors.

INGREDIENTS
1 box spice cake mix
1 apple, peeled and diced. I used Honey Crisp
1/4 cup chopped pecans
1/4 cup golden raisins
3/4 cup water
1/3 cup oil
3 whole eggs
Your favorite caramel sauce

DIRECTIONS
Mix the cake mix, oil, water and eggs until combined. Add the diced apple, pecans, and golden raisins, folding them in through the batter.
Line cupcake pans with liners and fill them up about 2/3 full with the batter.
Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Let the cupcakes cool, then top each cupcake with a tablespoon of caramel sauce for a little added sweetness.

Enjoy!
