These cupcakes are miniature versions of Boston cream cake, a famous American dessert. Before filling the cupcakes with pudding, cut out a small amount of crumb from the center to ensure there's enough room for the filling. Alternatively, you can simply cut the cupcake in half, spread frosting on one half, and then cover the other half with the other. This recipe doesn't require much time, as the main ingredients are pre-made. However, you can bake your own cupcakes if you prefer.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Combine the milk, dry pudding mix, and vanilla extract in a large bowl. Beat with a hand mixer for 2 minutes or until thickened. Refrigerate for 15 minutes. Spoon the mixture into a pastry bag fitted with a medium, plain tip. Fill the cupcakes with vanilla pudding. Insert the tip into the top of the cupcakes and pipe 2 tablespoons of filling into each.
  2. Heat the cream in a small heavy saucepan over medium heat until bubbles form around the edges. Remove from the heat, add the chocolate chips, and whisk until smooth. Spoon the glaze over the cupcakes or carefully pour it onto the cupcakes. You can also dip the tops of the cupcakes in the glaze. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving. Dust with powdered sugar.
