These cupcakes were tasty. They were sweet. They were definitely more milk chocolate than dark chocolate. Kids love these! I found this recipe on smuckers.com. I had never searched their website before but they have a lot of delicious looking recipes. This recipe was meant to be baked in a tube pan and served with hot fudge ice cream topping. It's so difficult to divide a tube pan cake nicely so I can give some to friends & family that I figure it's just easier to make cupcakes. The icing I chose was also milk chocolate and extra sweet. The texture of the cupcakes was lovely. A really fine and smooth crumb. Very moist with lots of flavor. The cupcakes did not dome on top and they weren't the prettiest without the icing. They kind of had the crackle like crust on top - sort of like a brownie. But covered up with the chocolate icing, everything looked and tasted wonderful!
