These Heath bar cupcakes bring on those flavorful toffee and chocolate flavors. Made with cake mix and topped with a creamy cheese frosting that has the toffee bits mixed right in, these are delicious.
Preheat the oven to 350F. Line a muffin tray with cupcake liners and set aside.
Make the cake mix according to the box instructions.
Stir in 1 cup of English toffee pieces.
Scoop the cupcake batter into the prepared cupcake liners. I use a ⅓ cup measuring cup to pour the batter but you don’t have to. Just make sure the cupcakes are about half full.
Bake for 25-28 minutes, until an inserted toothpick comes out clean. Allow the cupcakes to cool completely before frosting.
In a large bowl, beat together the cream cheese, butter, and powdered icing sugar.
Add 1 cup of the English toffee pieces. Mix to blend. Add the milk as needed to get the consistency you want.
Spread the frosting on the cupcakes. Sprinkle some English toffee pieces on top if you want.
Notes
Use any chocolate cake that you want. Your favorite brand or your favorite type of chocolate cake.
Instead of getting the English toffee candies, you can swap them out for crushed Heath bars.
Don’t feel like making your own frosting? Grab a container of cream cheese frosting from the store and use that instead.
You can use chocolate icing instead of cream cheese icing for even more chocolate goodness.
Add a drizzle of caramel to the cupcakes for more flavor.
