I loved the recipe. I moved and haven't been able to enjoy honey walnut shrimp for a long time! It came out perfect. The only thing I will change is that next time I will try candying the walnuts as suggested by others. Otherwise I will be making this over and over again!

My mom made cupcakes like these for my 6th birthday party because they were my favorite but I don't remember having them ever since. When I accidently stumbled on this recipe, I had to try it and send it to my mom too. Hi Mom! These came out really really good! I am surprised that it wasn't much harder than making cake out of the box really and I had everything on hand. I did notice like others that I ran out of black bottom before I had 24, in fact alot sooner and was left with more cream cheese mixture so I ended up making 1/2 of the cake mixture more and ended up with 24 then. Maybe it's because mine have "muffin tops" that I needed more mixture. Also I only baked mine for 20 minutes and this was perfect. I would definitely suggest checking yours also at 20 minutes, just make sure you don't mistake the melted chocolate chips as being wet cake batter. I did this and had left it in longer on a second batch.

Thankyou for submitting this recipe! It came out so moist and delicious. I followed your baking instructions and I did have to allow extra time until mine was ready but this was no problem for me. I checked it every 10 minutes after the one hour time. The only thing I changed is the frosting. Just because I wanted to make something different. I decreased the powdered sugar to only about 1 cup and added maybe 3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips melted with the butter in the microwave. I then topped with sprinkled walnuts. The only problem is that I can't stop eating the cake. I mean I have been picking at this cake all day! Gosh it's really good!!!
