I followed the recipe exactly and have to say I won't be making this again. The actual cupcake was just average tasting and the frosting definitely could have been better. Disappointing!

Delicious! One of my favorites! These have become a fall baking tradition. Friends, family, co-workers, they all enjoy them!Note: The filling can easily be played around with to personal preference. The cupcakes are, and remain, very moist, so I don't recommend keeping them out of the fridge for more than a few days. :)

I have made these cupcakes many times, they are a HUGE hit every single time, I frost them with cream cheese frosting instead. They are my favourite cupcakes!

My wife made these over the the Holidays. They were so good she made them for us twice and also made the for 2 Christmas parties. They were a hit everywhere!

This recipe was great. I also changed the filling to a cream cheese filling which really made the flavor even better. I found that it was easier to take the end of a wooden spoon to poke a hole in the center to fill the cupcakes. I used my electric cookie press which has a filler attachment. You can feel them puff out when filling. Made for work Christmas party & went over great.

Imade these for my family and they loved them . The only thing i did different was to use an apple corer to remove the centerof the cupcake and it worked awesome. I've made them 3 times already and they were a big hit.
