These cupcakes were a disaster. They were dry and crumbly, and the frosting was too sweet. I threw them all away.

Meh. They were okay, but nothing special. I wouldn't go out of my way to make these again.

Easy to follow recipe that yielded delicious cupcakes. I used a dark chocolate ganache frosting and they were a hit at my party. Will definitely make again!

These cupcakes are a true delight! The chocolate flavor is rich and decadent, and the texture is moist and fluffy. I topped mine with a simple vanilla buttercream frosting, and they were absolutely divine.
