More like a chocolate muffin. Very semi sweet, I usually add less sugar then recipes call for but this one I'd add more. Maybe some agave nectar so it's a healthier sugar. :

I made these cupcakes last weekend and they were a hit! I do have a couple of minor tweaks though to make them even better. You only need a pinch or two of salt. I made a double recipe and 1 teaspoon of salt was too much w/the marriment of the cocoa powder. It gave the batter/cake a stronger whiff of salt that it needed. The ganache was on point! I could not find espresso powder so I did have to opt for instant coffee powder but it still hit all the right notes. Also, the batter needed a bout another 1/2 cup of milk per batch, or 1 extra cup for a double batch. The batter was soooo thick!! Another cool thing I did w/my leftover batter was put it into a small cake pan and baked it. Spread ganache over the top and set it in the frig. Then finally melted Bakers milk chocolate over it and set it in the frig again. Best cake ever! The milk chocolate made a hard shell and I just cut the finished product into bars when it was time to serve. Yum!

These turned out so incredibly decadent, and they are so easy to make! I, too, increased the amount of milk to 3/4 cup and eggs to 2, as well as cream cheese to 6 ounces. It made 12 large, incredibly moist cupcakes. The ganache was a little too runny (I realize ganache should be runny, but it should not immediately drip off of the cupcakes, so I added extra chocolate chips to the cream to make it a bit thicker. With these modifications, the cupcakes were a raving success!

Delicious, moist cupcakes! I would advise any and everyone to try them! I love these cupcakes, they're very rich and chocolatey...but I made a few adjustments to the recipe: 3/4 cups milk instead of 2/3, 2 eggs instead of one and 5 or 6 ounces of cream cheese instead of 3. I ended up getting 14 cupcakes. As for the chocolate ganache, I was unable to make this due to lack of required ingredients, so I made a cream cheese frosting instead. Yummy!
