  1. I put the cheese cake filling into a zip lock baggie, removed the air and inserted the filling easier and better looking into the center of the cake. I added a single serving container of unsweetened applesauce to the cake batter and it made it moister and tastier, too. Next time, I'll put about 4 oz. of softened cream cheese to the batter, for taste and moistness.
     
  2. I tried this only because it looked simple and I need to bake this type of cake for an event. Had to question no egg in chocolate cake, but proceeded as written. Tasteless chocolate cake with a whimp of a crumb hard to get down. Centers were fine, but overall, this is not a winner.
     
  3. I made this recipe today for my family and friends, they absolutely LOVED THEM. Im thinking another way to put the filling, I didt it with a spoon but I want them to look a little better. Definitely making this cupcakes this week again.
     
  4. I made this recipe today for my daughter's soccer banquet. I tastde one and it was delicious. The next time I make these I will use something different to put the cream cheese filling into the batter so they will be more uniform in appearance.
     
  5. Ohhh, delicious!! Quick to make too! Made 24 cupcakes and baked for some 27 minutes - these are just heavenly and will definitely get made again! Thank you Slatts!
