I only made the frosting, but it was a disappointment. You can't taste the cream cheese. It just tastes like Nutella. Nutella is awesome, but I should've just put a scoop of nutella on my cupcakes. If it's supposed to be "Chocolate Hazelnut Cream Cheese Frosting," then that's what it should taste like. This recipe just further proves my point that people on Cupcake Wars cannot bake at all.

It's not sweet and the end result resembles a muffin more than a cupcake. I wish the sweet plantain flavor was stronger. I've made these cupcakes 2x the first time I thought that maybe my plantains were not black enough. The second time I used black soft plantains and after being caramelized I noticed the plantain mush was different than the first time with a more mushy consistency. But the flavor of the plantains is still not what I was looking for. In general people liked them. The frosting is simple and tasty.

Only made the frosting because my hubby requested a chocolate cream cheese frosting and he didn't want the chocolate buttercream I made last year (thankfully because it took half a day to make!. This was an absolutely delish frosting in no time at all- yummy!
