    These are amazing cupcakes. A couple notes
    1 Use 1 cup oil and 1 1/2 cup buttermilk
    2 Only make half the icing
    3 Only use half the food coloring
    4 If you make the buttermilk use a combination of yogurt and milk. It tasted delicious!
    I'm very glad I found this recipe!

    Pretty good cupcakes. I made these as large cupcakes and baked them for 23 minutes. Two things to note: (1 watch the red food coloring (everyone will end up with red tongues and (2 this is a really oily cupcake (let them cool on paper towels to soak up some of the oil. If you're going to pipe the icing on your cupcakes, chill the icing a little bit before piping so that it's the right consistency.

    These cupcakes are delicious. They are so moist, but also sooo greasy. I want to try this recipe again, but with less oil. Hopefully using maybe 1 cup of oil instead of 1.5 will not compromise the taste.

    This recipe was very easy to follow. The cupcakes were very moist and delicious. I have a gourmet food truck in Arizona and I made them for a catered party of 40 people and everyone raved about how much they loved them. Way to go Paula!

    Great recipe - I tweaked a bit by adding more Tbsp vanilla, Tbsp coco. Otherwise followed as directed and had great moist and tasty cupcakes. Not sure how others had oily or dry cupcakes unless an error was made somewhere. These were very good, moist, and flavorful with no oily bottoms. The added vanilla and coco helped add some flavor.

    The other thing I use is sugar infused with vanilla. We take fresh vanilla beans and cut open, scrap seeds, put scraped seeds and beans in air tight jar with sugar. Close air tight and sit for 2 weeks. Then use that as our sugar and just leave vanilla in it. Adds flavor to everything you need sugar for..

    THANKS Paula - your awesome!

    not too happy about recipe! made twice and both times they were not moist at all don't know what I'm doing wrong. Help!!! first time read reviews and tweaked recipe a bit by adding more cocoa powder and decreasing oil to 1 cup. Secont time added the full amount of oil and they still turned out dry.
