This recipe is disgusting. Taste more like cornbread than cake. I wonder how they make any money. Sorry, no offense to anyone that actually likes it.

I'm ready to try this recipe. We tried the cupcakes recently at the L.A. store and they were really really great.

After hearing so much about these cupcakes I had to try them last night and lets say this will be my only time making them. First off you can fill the liners as normal (which to me is about 2/3 the way full.) They rise so much that it overflows onto the pan. Second, the flavor was okay. Nothing all that special. I have two boys and they tried them and the response is that they like another recipe I use better. My last thought is that they were light and fluffy initally, but this morning I have found them somewhat "day old". I made this last night at 9pm and tried them this morning at 10am.
