Awesome recipe! So easy and turned out better than I expected, super rich and love how the filling centered!

Okay, but not that great. I can't pinpoint exactly what it is, but somehow, they just don't taste quite right.

Some pluses of this recipe is that it was very easy & fast. I was looking for a great cupcake that I could make to give away as gifts for Christmas and was trying to go for the whole trendy gourmet angle. These are NOT that. These taste like they came from a mix, and although very tasty, aren't the sort of fancy bakery quality I was going for. If I made them again, I would put a little batter in the cup, then the cream cheese filling, then cover that up with more batter. The way these turned out with adding the cream cheese on top was a very uneven surface and no filling in the lower half of the cupcake. Overall I think people will like them but probably won't be asking what bakery I got them from.

Good! Solid, and tasty, even though I forgot the filling! I'm such a space case!

Too much batter and filling. It might be good to make an additional 2 or 3 cupcakes in another pan. Very good tasting, best with a creamy icing.

Sadly, this recipe did not work out for me. The outside was dry and the middle was soggy. I will be sure to try them another day ... Alas, I am not a baker. **sigh**

I loved it! I had to use lemon juice instead of vinegar because I ran out. The filling was great and I did not put in the choco chips. I put a spoon full of batter on top. Then I made a cream cheese frosting and sprinkled mini chocolate chips. Thank you so much for sharing!

I really think this is a good recipe. I left out the nuts and chips to get a more creamy filling and because my family doesn't like nuts that much. The cake was nice and I used a chocolate frosting with a cream cheese topper and sprinkles. These were a big hit at a pre-wedding lunch.

The chocolate part of the cupcake came out a bit hard and not as cakey as I like. The cream cheese center was fabulous. I kept inserting a toothpick into the center to check for doneness and then I remembered that there were chocolate chips in the center and that would be why the toothpick kept coming out gooey! (Might explain why the cupcakes were hard as well.) I frosted them with Tom's Whipped Cream Cream Cheese frosting recipe and they were a big hit!

Has turned out perfect every time I've made them and they are a huge hit! Go for a light chocolate frosting - I made a fudgey frosting and it was too rich - but still yummy:)
