These are the first homemade cupcakes I've ever made and they turned out perfect!! I left out the cinnamon and nuts and frosted them with cream cheese frosting and they were delicious! I made these for the guys at work and they couldn't get enough of them. I would recommend making these in a heartbeat!

I am a huge fan of Kittencal's recipes, but this one failed me. First off, calling them 'one bowl' is a little misleading. Technically, one bowl is correct, but you dirty two containers. I also found them to be very dry. I would reduce her suggested cooking time, checking them after 15 minutes. The chocolate buttercream icing that she suggested was the saving grace~ super yummy! I would refrigerate it for a few minutes before applying it to the cupcakes.

I thought these were just ok. Normally, I love kitten's recipes. I made the cupcakes exactly as the recipe instructs. The only thing that saved the cupcakes was my chocolate ganache icing. I think using oil instead of butter is part of the problem. Also, I definitely would add more coco powder next time.

Yum, these are excellent! The only change I made was to use Andes Creme De Menthe Baking chips instead of the regular mini chips (I didn't have any) the mint flavor was really good with the chocolate. I usually don't make cupcakes (I hate frosting them) but this would even be good baked as a cake. I did use the frosting recipe as well and that is Yummy too! What else can we expect from Kitten all of her recipes are great, at least I have never been dissapointed. Thanks Kitten!
