  Made two batches for a fundraiser and both fell. VERY disappointed in this recipe. only rated it 5 stars so this would be seen. Guess I should have read the reviews before I tried it.

  Very disappointed in these cupcakes :( my husband and I both tried them and said at the same--tastes like cornbread. Ugh! Will not make again. As someone else said TOH recipes usually are fantastic but this one did not meet the mark for me.

  These cupcakes turned out very moist. I don't buy heavy whipping cream so I made a light icing recipe. I did add the 1/8 teaspoon of salt to my icing so I got the "salted" taste.

  I was SO excited to make these because we have a local cupcake bakery that has this flavor so I wanted to recreate them. Boy was I disappointed!! The centers fell (like some others mentioned) and I had to make the frosting a second time because I didn't heat the heavy whipping cream the first time and my sugar turned into rocks like someone else mentioned. Thanks to someone's comment I figured out to heat the whipping cream (should probably be stated in the actual recipe!) I also didn't care for the flavor of the whole thing from the cupcake to the frosting. Now I have two dozen cupcakes sitting in my fridge that my husband won't even touch even though he gave me a half hearted "they're good" when he tried one. He hasn't eaten another one since. Oh well...there are many other wonderful recipes from TOH that have blown my socks off!!

  The cupcakes turned out good, but they did fall-some more others. What they dont tell you, is that takes while for sugar mix turn amber, and if you add too much cream too fast , sugar rocks up. Better 2 warm it 1st. Maybe thats common knowledge- i didnt know!

  Second batch fell only slightly. I filled each cupcake only half full instead of 3/4 full and that helped.

  So I just took the first batch out of the oven and they fell. :-( I will still make them again because they taste fabulous. I wonder if it's the baking powder as opposed to baking soda. That's the only thing I can think is different. I'm used to using baking soda and/or a combination of both, not just baking powder.

  East to make, delicious. Iced with another sucre le creme frosting on this site.

  I agree with Mjlowe. Taste is great, I followed the recipe to the letter and even doubled it with confidence. They ALL sank in the middle! Hoping that when they cool, the frosting will hide a multitude of sins. At any rate, I will not be making these again until our Taste of Home experts can offer a solution to the things falling. They're just too expensive and fussy to make to have such a disappointing outcome.
