The subtle smokiness of the grill pairs beautifully with the nuttiness of the banana bread base for these treats. Next time the grill is fired up for dinner, throw some cupcakes at the flames and make dessert alongside the main course – you’ll be amazed at how sinful these cupcakes will be!

Directions
Whisk together flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt. Set aside.
Using mixer in large bowl, cream butter with granulated sugar and brown sugar until light. Add eggs, one at a time, then vanilla. Add flour mixture alternately with -bananas and yogurt, mixing on low speed just until moistened. Batter will be lumpy; do not overmix. Gently fold in chopped walnuts.
Line large muffin tin with cupcake liners and fill about 2/4 full. Place in 375°F covered grill over indirect heat and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
For filling, prepare pudding according to package directions, mix in Vanilla Extract.
For Frosting, prepare pudding according to package directions, fold together remaining ingredients. Refrigerate for ½ hour to set.
Once cupcakes have cooled, cut a 1” core out of the center of each cupcake (about 1” deep). Cut a “plug” out of the top of the removed core, fill with hole with filling and replace “plug”.
Top cupcakes with frosting and garnish as desired.
