These are fabulous! They are very light and fluffy in texture and the flavor is so well balanced with the chocolate and cinnamon. I did use heavy cream instead of the milk in the frosting since I like a more whipped texture. I will be making these again and again. Thanks LTH for another stunning cupcake!
I made these before the recipe was officially published and am so happy to see them as a kitchen approved recipe! 10 star recipe! The cake has the perfect balance of cinnamon/chocolate and sprinkling the tops with cinnamon sugar before baking is genius. The frosting? To die for. I think I added a bit more cinnamon and cocoa than called for because I wasn't paying attention but it's divine regardless. Thanks LTH!!!
WOW WOW!! THESE ARE SOOOO RICH & DECADENT! I MADE MINI CUPCAKES & AS WITH MOST RECIPES I GET FROM HERE I TOOK THEM TO CHURCH POTLUCK. EVERYONE RAVED ABOUT THEM EVEN MY PASTOR WHO ISN'T MUCH ON SWEETS. I DIDN'T ADD ANY ADDITIONAL POWDERED SUGAR TO THE FROSTING AND PIPED IT USING A PASTRY BAG/TIP AND IT CAME OUT LIGHT AND FLUFFY A MOUSSE LIKE TEXTURE. PERFECTION!!!! I GIVE THIS 5!!!!!
i love cinnamon so these were great for me!! So fluffy and yummy i filled them with a cream cheese/cinnamon filling and used regular buttercream frosting with 1tbsp of cocoa yummmmm GREAT cupcakes.. The batter was soooo fluffy and creamy I thought I did something wrong but they turned out wonderful! I have to add though that many people weren't into the strong cinnamon flavor so if making for many people I suggest less cinnamon.. That's why I took one star a lot of people weren't into them at the party I took them to.... But I loved them & will make again for my son and me!
I just made these and they are amazing. I forgot to add the butter in the cupcake mix and they still came out nice and moist. I was a little skeptical using the shortening in the frosting but it came out delish.
These received rave reviews! Easy to make. My husband's coworkers love them.
These cupcakes are amazing. They are the perfect combination of chocolate and cinnamon. The frosting is the perfect addition to the cake. I made these and people said they tasted like they were professionally made. I will definitely be making again.
These were delicious! Cupcakes were moist Icing was tasty. They were a big hit at my house!
A little dry and some what bland I did not care for the frosting at all. The flavor was good but it was greasy.
This recipe was good however I would still serve or eat one of these but if I had a choice I'd take the snickerdoodle first.
