I've made this recipe twice and both times the cupcakes were delicious! However, I must admit that I tweaked it a bit from the start so I never had a problem with the cupcakes being dry.

For starters, I added 8 oz of cream cheese which helped with the moisture. (Can maybe consider cutting out some of the butter Second, I totally disregarded the steps that were provided. (It actually was by accident because I didn't have the recipe in front of me but I am happy with my mistake
- I did not melt the butter but instead allowed it to cool at room temp. I creamed the butter, cream cheese and the sugar then added the milk and eggs.
- I sifted the dry ingredients and added them to the wet. (be sure not to over mix the batter

I know it changes the recipe but maybe those who were unhappy with their results can try my suggestions.

I used the frosting part of this recipe. I was looking for a quick recipe for milk chocolate frosting because the daughter who's birthday it was, doesn't like dark chocolate. I wanted it fast, easy and delicious, and it was! And I had everything in the pantry too.

I read a few of reviews that said they turned out tasting like cornbread and was thinking how could they ever taste like cornbread? But, I followed the recipe and they did turn out like corn bread. I didn't try the icing but I didn't like the cupcakes. Did I do something wrong, or are they supposed to taste like cornbread?

I agree with most-they were definitely too much like a corn muffin-not enough like a cupcake. The icing was good-but not amazing. I'm going to try to use more sugar, less flour, more vanilla, and possibly room temperature butter vs. melted for the cakes.

Very good, with icing. Next time I make it I think I will add a little more vanilla and maybe a little less flour, since the flavor reminds me of a dessert cornbread.
