I found a recipe for this cupcake that was fairly complicated. I simplified it by using a cake and pudding mix. I am posting this recipe on Cupcake Tuesday, http://hoosierhomemade.com/
I used a lemon cake mix and lemon cook and serve pudding mix. Use directions on both boxes, let cupcakes and pudding cool completely.

Use a knife to cut a hole in middle of cupcake.
Fill hole with pudding.
Meringue
Beat 3 egg whites with 1/2 teaspoon cream of tartar until frothy. Gradually beat in 6 tablespoons sugar, a little at a time.
Continue beating until stiff and glossy. Beat until sugar is dissolved.
Top each cupcake with meringue.
Bake at 400 degrees, for 8-10 minutes, or until tops are golden brown. Watch carefully it is easy to burn meringue.
those are really cute!
