Great flavor, the molasses really stood out though so maybe next time I would just use a little less molasses. I frosted them with a thin vanilla frosting, turned out great!

Enjoyed these not too sweet cupcakes. Great with a cup of coffee.

Definitely a keeper in my books! I used canned frosting b/c they were going to be displayed at a party and was afrad the icing would melt.

these were different, the molasses taste came through real strong, would recommend using the whipped topping to cut the spicy taste...also mine came out with the tops of cupcakes indented, not rounded as a normal cupcake

great idea. Good flavor and just the right amount for one serving at a time. Made them and gave some as gifts.

I was thrilled to find a recipe using whole wheat because I try to use whole grains as much as possible. In fact, I made them using ALL whole wheat flour. They were great!
