Haven't made them yet. The grocery list for the cream cheese cupcake is for the hummingbird cupcake. Sorry. I thought you should know.

I found this recipe to be so extremely sweet, that I wish I hadn't iced tem. Also the tops were so tender, it was hard to put the icing on without pulling the top layer off.

I made these cupcakes and took them to the senior home and the residents loved them.

I also had chocolate one and the cream cheese ones went first.

Great cupcake recipe. It would work with any flavor cake mix. I don't usually make cupcakes but will do this one again and again.
