Not as chocolatey as I had expected but still so tasty. I loved that they are heavier, for lack of a better word, than say a box recipe. And they had a nice crisp edge but were still soooo moist. I'm plan on frosting with cream cheese frosting. Yummy :) Thanks for sharing!Monica Wardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06251812920231600634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4771292389623359877.post-73767953906657949552011-08-06T16:31:56.310-07:002011-08-06T16:31:56.310-07:00Made me a fan with the red velvet recipe.

Question: the cupcakes were wonderfully "cracked" on the top, is this good? On fruit loaves this is great, and chefs even "slice" their loaf to get this effect, technically, is this good for cupcakes? <br />There was no problem spreading the frosting, just asking...<br />Great recipes thanks!!!1,000,000Suehttp://2tired2cook.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4771292389623359877.post-31407046555837326002010-05-08T06:26:00.451-07:002010-05-08T06:26:00.451-07:00Yummy cakes!!!!Yummy cakes!!!!Hello Hummingbirdhttp://www.facebook.com/hellohummingbirdnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4771292389623359877.post-50560746991217660332010-04-18T17:14:28.147-07:002010-04-18T17:14:28.147-07:00Tried this recipe this weekend and they came out g...Tried this recipe this weekend and they came out great. My four year old and my 42 year old husband loved them! I've now shared it with family and friends. What I love about it the most that although it is chocolatie (sp?) it's not rich and the icing give it the perfect touch.

But I find that sour cream gives it more of a tang.<br />If you are using the recipe I've supplied you with I would suggest usuing sour cream. Buttermilk is runnier than sour cream and that will have an effect.<br />Good luck!Cupcake Galhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08053106254179999037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4771292389623359877.post-4438947546316681412009-08-09T20:23:23.620-07:002009-08-09T20:23:23.620-07:00Hey, I have done choc ccakes with buttermilk befor...Hey, I have done choc ccakes with buttermilk before and they are good too.
