The flavour was OK, not fantastic, and I didn't like the texture at all. It might be my own personal taste but I won't be making these again.

Excellent fudge cupcake. Some of mine collapsed but it didn't matter as I was looking for a fudge brownie cupcake to put a fluff frosting to make smore cupcakes! EXCELLENT!!

These cupcakes are great. Mine did rise, and never collapsed. I made somewhat larger cupcakes (so it only made 12) and still only had to cook them a little over 30mins. I used double-layer paper cupcake cups inside a muffin tray. These have a lovely fudge-y inside and a crunchy top like a brownie. Not your conventional cupcake but really yummy. I think these can be eaten with or without frosting, and it's a brilliant recipe for such simple ingredients.

Like everyone else said, these sink in the middle. But they're also right about the brownie-ness of these. A perfect brownie cupcake hybrid with a fudgy inside and crisp top. And the paper didn't stick to the sides, which has happened to me before. I piped whipped ganache on top and they were very good. Just the kind of thing to get you through a Wednesday.

Wow, these were phenomenal! I don't like fluffy cake or cupcakes, so I was happy to read that these are more like a brownie. They were soooo fudgy. I put peanut butter cups in the middle of some and frozen cookie dough ball in some. These will be made often in my house!

They fell in for us. They didn't work at all. They taste good, but they look like you forgot a rising agent.

Very chocolately, my favorite kind! At first I wondered, when the dough was almost as thick and stiff as peanut butter, but I just spooned it in the tin anyway. I did use unsweetened chocolate squares instead of semi-sweet since that's all I had. They came out perfect and didn't collapse or any other bad thing. I did follow very carefully all the "mix on low", "sift the flour" instructions since I was worried after reading some other reviews. It made 12 delicious, oversized muffins for me. Heating the chocolate and butter is a lot easier in the microwave.

This recipe is awesome. Easy to follow and the brownie-like fudge cupcakes taste great. Only four stars though cause they don't look too exceptional and I had to tweak the recipe based on other member's comments. I used unsweetened chocolate to make sure it wasn't too sweet. Based on other comments about caving in, I made sure not to over-beat/mix the batter and added a tsp of baking soda. I will definitely use this recipe in the future.

These would be more aptly named "Brownie Cups." They aren't really cupcakes. That said, they are tasty single serving brownies with a crisp top and semi-fudgy inside. I halved ther recipe, added 1/2tsp. instant coffee, dissolved in a little hot water, and about 1/2C of toffee bits. I just barely had enough batter to 1/2 fill each cup.

At first all the caved-in tops put me off, but I decided to judge for myself. I don't know people are talking about! They were delicious, no caved in tops! I made one batch yesterday, and due to there magical over-night disappearance, another batch today. I used Smart Balance instead of butter, but other then that, I followed the recipe exactly. I highly recommend!

Loved the cupcakes. I didn't have trouble with collapsing...that is usually due to opening the oven too soon because the cold air makes the cupcakes collapse. If you dont want small cucakes fill it 3/4 full or a little more. Make sure you grease the top of the muffin tins in case they rise too much that way it doesn't stick. What is really important is to make sure you cream together the sugar and butter very well. If you dont you wont have a rising agent. Made these with the Wedding Cake frosting on this sight only I made fresh raspberry syrup in the cupcakes and the frosting. Delish but not the right frosting. Needs something lighter or something really chocolaty...would go with some of the other suggestions next time.

This recipe was so simple and amazing! I changed the serving size to 36 and made 24 cupcakes with it. They had a nice fudge-y consistency and were a big hit with friends and family. Also, I baked them on multi-convection at 350 degrees and they came out better than when I tried them at 325.
