For the cupcakes I just made them out of the Betty Crocker Super Moist cake box in the flavor white. I followed the instructions that were on the box and the only thing I changed was the amount of eggs. Instead of 3 I only put 2 on the mix.

For filling:

Melt butter and cinnamon over medium heat.

Stir in apples, sugar and 1 1/2 tablespoons of water.Cook and stir occasionally for 4-6 minutes or until slightly softened.

In a small dish combine cornstarch and water. Add to pan while stirring and continue to cook until apples are soft not mushy, and filling has thickened. Cool completely.
