    be very careful how you mix up the ingredients. i must have mixed them wrong because my cupcakes ended up crumbly and did not mix well at all. i ended up having to throw them all out.

    Did you use salted or unsalted butter for this recipe?
  • Melissa Oct 13, 2011 @ 11:35 pm | delete
    Those ARE the best cupcakes ever!!! So moist and chocolatey and just plain delicious. But I think that your medium size is different from mine.I got 26 ;). Not that having 26 is a bad thing or anything...

    so far, in my life, i've been a good cook, but a TERRIBLE baker. I wanted to make these for my first wedding anniversary. A tasty treat for a wonderful picnic. So, i went to my mom *she's a baker, but not a cook* and we made a batch. Absolutely wonderful. I've made them twice now and will keep this recipe forever! =) thanks sooooo much. you've inspired me to make myself a cook and a baker =)

    I made these cupcakes and they were the most delicious and moist cupcakes that I have ever made. I used a cool whipped frosting which is not very sweet at all. 1 pint of heavy whipping cream, 1 box of instant jello pudding mix (whatever flavor you desire), and a 1/4 cup of poweder sugar. Blend all of the three ingredients together until it stiffens up. It stiffens up enough to pipe or frost the cupcakes. Thanks for the great cupcake recipe!

    This looks like an amazing cupcake.

    I'm 16, and I just made my very first batch of cupcakes. They are unbelievably good they came out perfect!
    But I made a glaze instead of a frosting : I combined 1 cup of frosting sugar with a little bit of milk and lots of lemon juice. Then I just dipped the top of each cupcake in the glaze and let cool :) they taste awesome Thank You :)

    What kind of butter? I used salted and the butter didn't mix... did you use unsalted?

    When do you add the 3 eggs?
  • kiwisoutback Oct 25, 2010 @ 2:39 pm | delete
    The eggs should be added to the mix in step 2. Thanks!
  • new to cooking Oct 18, 2010 @ 2:03 pm | delete
    Tried these. set the eggs out to get to room temp - you never tell me when to add them?!?!
  • Ashley of Iowa Sep 20, 2010 @ 7:34 pm | delete
    Is there a reason you failed to mention how much vanilla to add? I'm very confused.
  • kiwisoutback Sep 24, 2010 @ 11:49 am | delete
    Looks like I did omit that ingredient from the batter. 1 Tablespoon should be enough.
  • BarbRad Sep 10, 2010 @ 10:15 pm | delete
    Very well done! Can you see me drooling? I'm going to favorite this.

    Well done, but I don't think looking at those pictures of cupcakes does much for my waistline. Thank you.
