Me and a friend of mine made these for the Broncos super bowl game. I wanted something easy, fast and delicious, these were it. I even added a little blue color too it as well, these were not the sweetest cupcakes but with a dab of orange frosting these are great. Thank you for such a wonderful recipe, I will definitely be making these again. GO BRONCOS!

I work for a cupcake kitchen, pretty basic recipe. The best kind of vanilla extract is those of other countries the one I use is Dominican vanilla extract usually can be found in Spanish/ diversified neighborhoods. Definitely say add at least a tbsp. of butter more. Thanks... Have fun baking!

I used apple sauce instead of the oil. They came out spongy and stuck to the cupcake liners. Would be great for trifle or Tiramisu as they hold up to liquids. Used them for strawberry short cake bottoms, they were fine. Not great just fine.

I can't wait to try the recipe! In the comments, I stumbled across someone who replaced the butter with mazola corn oil. If I am short on butter, what can I use as a replacement?

These were ok, the texture was nice. The only thing I did not care for was that they were a little sweet. So much, that it was cloyingly sweet when paired with buttercream, much like the typical "boutique" cupcakes. I love sweets, and can usually handle a lot, but this recipe was a bit too sweet. Not even my children cared for it even after taking the buttercream off the top.

I loved this recipe. I'm only 11 but I've used this recipe 2 times.

This recipe is GREAT! I'm only 10 but used this and LOVED it!!
