I have been making these cupcakes for a few years now, and they are ALWAYS a hit. Only thing I do different is that I use regular white vinegar. I am not a very big chocolate fan, but I must say these cupcakes are simply DIVINE!!! Beware, though...they are addicting!!! Great recipe! ~Manda -
I have noticed reading the different offerings of this recipe here at Zarr that there are many varriations. What a treat..trying out each one to see which fits the favorite catagory.. rough job, but someone has to do it, right? <G> -
Yum! I was a little worried when the batter seemed too watery, but these turned out great. I filled some cups 2/3 full w/ chocolate batter before adding the cream cheese and i think those came out better than those only filled 1/3 w/ chocolate batter. Using milk instead of water is a good suggestion from najwa. -
