Directions:

  1. Assembly
  2. Using a small paring knife, cut a cone shape out of the top of each cupcake. Flip the cone and cut off the excess cake. Save the top for later. Fill each cavity with a teaspoon or so of cream cheese filling. Replace the top of each cupcake pressing down firmly to adhere the top to the filling.
  3. Using a small offset spatula, frost each cupcake with the caramel. If desired, sprinkle warm caramel with toppings, such as coconut or crushed nuts. Transfer the cupcake into the freezer to allow the caramel to set without dripping over the edge of the cupcake paper.
  4. Continue frosting and topping the cupcakes and try to work fast. As the caramel cools, it becomes less easy to spread. If possible, work in pairs and let your helper top the cupcakes and transfer them to the freezer. By the time you reach the last few cupcakes, you will no longer need to freeze them and you can take all the cupcakes out and transfer them to the counter.
  5. Top off each cupcake with a popsicle or craft stick to finish off the look.
