    I really liked these muffins, not sweet and the texture was that of a muffin. The chocolate really added the right amount of sweetest and great taste. The cranberries also added some sweetest and flavor. I will be making them again. If people stopped changing the recipe and the ingredients they would also have great tasting muffins. Instead of dried up muffins!!!!

    First of all, these are muffins NOT cupcakes so sweetness should not be an issue. The fact that I want the sugar cut from my kids diet is a factor leading me to choose muffins over anything else. Love these but yes did leave out the chocolate, but will be making them as a Halloween treat! Looking for some gummy spiders too.

    Loved this! I substituted wheat flour for all purpose and left off the webs and spiders. Other than that I really liked the texture and flavor of these. I expected the cranberries to be a really strong flavor so I wasn't sure about them, but they actually turned out to bring just the right amount of flavor to the pumpkin, slightly mild. They had a mild sweetness, but not too much. The chocolate glaze definitely made up for the sweet factor. My kids loved them and I plan on making them again! Instead of drizzling the glaze, I took the muffins(completely cooled and turned them upside down and dipped them in the pot of glaze. Turned out just right!

    I made these last night and they were awful. I was already half-way thru the recipe when I read the reviews so I added more sugar and an additional egg based on the other feedback. I didn't do the cranberries or chocolate icing but did add chocolate chips. The next morning, my 2 1/2 year old refused to eat them and said "yucky, mommy, no thank you". There are definitely much better recipes out there and very disappointed since I usually like Emeril's recipes.

    This was a great pumpkin muffin! Moist, firm, yet soft texture. I left out the cranberries and left off the glaze, but added just over 1/2 cup of mini chocolate chips (although I like the idea of orange and white chocolate mentioned in one of the reviews. Also added a couple of tablespoons of white sugar as we like a sweeter muffin. They were great and didn't take too much time to prepare. I'll definitely make these again.

    telling us to use 1 can pumpkin puree is less than informative. There are different sizes of product available.

    I don't know how anyone could give this recipe 5 stars. I made these yesterday, following the recipe exactly, and they were awful; the texture was the absolute worst and they were not sweet enough. I threw out the whole batch after feeding a little to my dogs. Not worth the time or the ingredients.

    Muffins turned out great, moist, good texture, although i left out the cranberries and then later they seemed to be missing something. I think next time I'll add some walnuts and leave off the chocolate.

    I just made these this morning and they turned out great. I have a non stick muffin pan so I turned down the temperature by 25 degrees. I didn't use the chocolate frosting at all because I feel that chocolate can overpower the taste of pumpkin.....so instead I melted a half cup of white chocolate chips and added 1/4 tsp. of orange extract. I brushed the top of each cooled muffin with this mixture and it was really delicious!
