These cupcakes are really very easy, yet another white cake recipe that starts with a box mix. The texture is perfect, and is dotted with pieces of chopped cherries. My favorite butter cream (made with an almond emulsion instead of vanilla) is a lovely complement to the cherry flavor, and of course, a cherry on top.
