I couldn't resist incorporating caramel apple kisses into a cupcake creation. I was so happy that I did. The chocolate and caramel apple melted in my mouth in each bite. No need for frosting with these. The kisses make them rich enough. I decided to drip some chocolate dessert sauce on top to add a little extra decoration. A little extra chocolate never hurts!Caramel Apple Kiss Cupcakes

Oh GOODNESS! Those sound perfect! And the best part is that I know where to find carmel kisses. :) I'm going to make a half recipe...if I didn't all 12 I wouldn't take leftovers to work.
WOW! this is such an ingenius idea. i'm bookmarking this page, and i'm thinking i'll use fresh apples.
HOLY!
Baking genius, that you are.
What a great idea. I love the view from the inside of the cupcake, so cute!
The pic with the gooey kiss in it is so tantalizing!
hmm, you must've known I had picked those up to try, too! Great use for them :)
I've had carmel kisses once, they are so good. I love how the carmel oozes out in one of your pictures. This really was a great idea!
Oh wow! Look at how they melted! That's brilliant. Yum.

The inside of those cupcakes is making me drool!! Hurray for Hershey's and Megan, collaborating to make something scrumptious :o)
LOVE!!
my husband is traveling and how would he adore coming home to these?!
(now to get motivated...here's hoping I dont end up at the grocery bakery counter :))

Those are perfect. I was wondering when the caramel kiss was going to make an appearance. Awesome job Meg :)
You were not joking Megan - they look yummy. Can I have one... ummm maybe two :)
I think my mouth was literally watering when I saw those pictures! YUM
Whelp, there goes the diet! But it will be sooooo worth it. After all, every once in a while you just have to eat two dozen cupcakes whether you need it or not.
What a genius idea for the cupcakes! Just gorgeous!
Wait wait wait- caramel apple kisses??? What are those?! Oh my goodness, that's, like, amazing! I'll have to hunt some of those down and make these cupcakes! Fantastic!
Oh my! These look lovely! :)
They look so yummy and pretty!! Great idea!
I would not mind taking a bite into those and being surpised with that in the middle! YUM!
What a creative idea! I have yet to try the caramel apple variety. This opens the door for all kinds of kiss/cupcake creations! Thanks!
Definitely drool-worthy!
OMG, I want to taste those cupcakes! Really wonderful and incredibly luscious!
Cheers,

These sound amazing! I'll definitely be giving them a try if I can get my hands on some of those Kisses!
HOLY COW - THAT IS THE BEST IDEA - EVER! HANDS DOWN! YUM!!! :D
They are absolute cuties! XD
They look AMAZING!! I don't think I can get those kisses here though :(
yummy! I probably can't get those apple caramel kisses here...but I guess I can always substitute it with something else. Great idea!
Caramel and apple is such a perfect combination, these look delicious!
Good words.
