Pretty good, At first I followed the recipe exactly and found it to be a little bland and needing a bit more texture. So to the mixture I added 3 mini-bella mushrooms chopped, about a tablespoon of fresh basil and half tablespoon of fresh oregano and it brightened up wonderfully. Really an excellent base recipe that can be adjusted to one's taste.

Good recipe. I decided to make this b/c my 4 yr old wanted chocolate cupcakes and I didn't have any eggs. I did decide to change the recipe a bit after reading the reviews. First I halved the recipe so there were only 12 servings. Then I doubled the cocoa powder and vanilla. Also since I love chocolate orange I replaced the water with orange juice, added a tsp of orange extract and the zest of one orange. Overall a good recipe to start with and tinker with. The texture was dense but nice which may have been because I doubled the cocoa.

Nice to work with and looks great. Extremely sweet though. I add about 1/8 of a tsp of salt to balance out the flavor a bit.
