I just made these for my dad for Father's Day because his favorite dessert is Boston Cream Pie. From my taste test, these are very good. I didn't find the cupcake to be bland but I also used 3 T. butter instead of shortening. The chocolate ganache is a little bit lumpy but I used a spoon to mush some of the chips down and it's fairly smooth. I also brought the cream to a boil and let it boil for a bit to make sure it was hot enough to fully melt the chips.Instead of using the pastry bag to fill the cupcakes with the pudding, I recommend this method that I found: http://annies-eats.net/2011/03/07/how-to-make-filled-cupcakes/ It was much easier and I think I got more pudding in the cupcakes, otherwise there is no place for the pudding to go if you don't make room. Hopefully my dad likes these!

These cupcakes were very dry and blan, and they absorbed the pudding. The ganache was lumpy, which was probably my fault, but they were not very good and I don't think I would make them again.

These cupcakes turned out horrible. They were gross and the cupcake absorbed the chocolate ganache - which was probally a fault on my end because it didn't cool down completely. But the cupcake itself (the most important part) was plain and bland. I'm not a big fan of working with shortening and tend to shy away from recipes that have it. Maybe it was my fault because everyone else seemed to like it, but I don't want to make these again to find out.

Tasted great! I used sugar free french vanilla pudding. It was yummy!, and fewer calories! Next time I'm going to at least double the recipe to make more than 6 cupcakes.

The recipe states to poke a toothpick in the 'vanilla' portion. Did I miss something in the directions?

I love this recipe - how elegant they turned out. One word of caution, be sure and use a tip that is long enough to go into the cupcake otherwise you won't get enough pudding inside and they just aren't the same. We loved it, will makes these over and over.
