    OMG!!! I frosted Beatty's chocolate cake recipe by Ina with this wonderful peanut butter recipe. I can't made the cake beyond fantastic but amazing. Frosting took the chocolate cake to another level.

    This was an amzing recipe! The entire recipe was easy to work with. The cake came out incredibly moist-probably the moistest cake I have ever had. It was a deep chocolate cake with great flavor. The frosting was fluffy and light. The deep chocolate taste went very well with the sweet peanut butter frosting. On it's own the frosting is sweet, but when added to the cake, it is perfect! This recipe was a true hit! Will definitely make this many more times in the future! Thanks Ina!

    A-FREAKIN-MAZING!!!! Family raved. Husband said they were the best he'd had. Thank you very, very much...I tried another recipe that didn't suffice, and these saved the day. I could tell as soon as I took them out that they were moist. I just added semi-sweet chocolate w/ shortening drizzled on top of the peanut butter icing to finish the indulgence...oh, and a peanut butter chocolate egg in the centre! : Will be a go-to.

    I used box cake mix for the cupcakes but used this frosting recipe, the cupcakes were amazing. My family loved them. Thanks Ina.

    Surprisingly disappointed. I bake a lot of cupcakes and decided to try Ina's recipe for a change. The cupcakes were dry, and I baked them less time than what is called for. I also felt the cake was a little too dense. The flavor was good but I wasn't crazy about the texture.

    Absolutely heaven! You can't go wrong with the chocolate and peanut butter combination. Ina's recipe is perfect in my opinion. I make them exactly (OK..only bake for 18 minutes as written and they are perfection. Chocolatey, light airy cupcake with a smooth, creamy peanut butter icing...divine!

    I just made this recipe today for a friend at work. Best peanut butter frosting i have ever made. Smooth, creamy, and delicious. Very quick and easy. Thinking this would be great with NUTELLA, and chopped hazelnuts, instead of the peanut butter and peanuts? Hmmmm, sounds good to me.....

    As usual, you never let me down. These are the easiest, tastiest cupcakes I have ever made or eaten!!! I love all your dishes & love your show! Thanks for being there. Oh I'm sure Jeffrey just loves these. The best he has ever had! My son loved them. Oh, I did put a little cinnamon in the batter.

    The chocolate cupcakes were amazing! Great, rich chocolate flavor. Very moist - they stayed moist for days! I subbed Kaluha for the coffee. I used a ganache on top and filled them with a creamcheese frosting and they were amazing. I bet the PB frosting would work well, too, but I made these for my hubby's bday and PB frosting is not his fave. Don't know why ppl complain about dry cupcakes. I would use just one leveled off ice cream scoop for the cupcakes. I used rounded scoops for one batch and they baked over the edge. Using just the scoop leveled off was the perfect amount of batter for each. Doing it that way makes about 24-26 cupcakes. I made no changes for high elevation (6000 ft +.

    The Flavor was good, but these were way way too dry. I baked them for less than the recommended time, and still, way too dry. If they had been moist, would have been a winner. Something is not right with this recipe,.
