This recipe gets NO stars. I, like everyone else, followed the recipe to a T and also ended up with completely thinned out liquidy batter (if you can call it batter). I thought it might bake up and I now have a house that smells like burned liquid "batter" even though the timer hadn't even gone off yet, it had bubbled up onto the muffin tin and burned. Yay. The one plus is the filling, I've got to figure out somewhere else to use it, glad I had some leftover. DOn't waste your time with these cupcakes...there must be a typo in the recipe somewhere.

haven't made these, but i do have a tip for the filly. bake the cupcakes without the filling, and add the filling after they bake. you can use a melon-baller to get a little well inside the cupcake, and use a baggie or piping bag to the the filling inside, then replace a bit of the top of the cupcake. once you frost it, you won't be able to tell there was a hole. i guess maybe the filling needs to be cooked, too. but maybe you could do that on the stove top, or come up with a different filling. these look good though! can't wait to try them.

I would give this more than 5 stars if I could. I made these for a bake sale and was a little leery because I had not made this before. I followed the directions exactly and ended up with the best cupcake I have ever made. I did have to let them sit in the cupcake tins a little longer than 10 minutes, the first two I tried to take out stuck a little, and darn it all, I had to leave them at home. My hubby ate them and said 5 stars. My boss also said 5 stars. Make these cupcakes, you won't be disappointed!

I followed the recipe exactly except for the icing which I left out. The cupcakes were rich and moist and tasty enough that I felt they didn't need the icing, although I'm sure that would have put them over the top. The only drawback was that I had about half of the filling left over. Also, part of the filling was left sticking out of the cake when it was baked - I thought it sink into the dough but it didn't. So next time I will put in half the cake dough, then the filling, then the other half of the cake dough on top of the filling. Thanks for a very tasty recipe.
