Buttermilk Chocolate Cupcakes
Good any time of the year, a chocolate cupcake recipe make a great get-up-and-go treat on busy summer days. These buttermilk chocolate cupcakes have been a frosted favorite with family and friends for at least 35 years. They're really popular at bake sales. —Ellen Moore, Springfield, New Hampshire

Absolutely delicious! The cupcakes were moist, but not overly moist. The frosting was nice and pipable! I will definitely never ever turn to another chocolate cupcake recipe!
delicious cupcakes, I kinda didn't notice it made 2 dozen, and I only made a dozen with little batter left. lucky for me. they didn't overflow. my only problem was the frosting. it ended up being very thick and un-pipe-able and actually broke my hand mixer. oops . I'd add a bit more liquid next time.
They are really really good! Best cupcakes I’ve ever made ! Thank you :)
I have been trying different chocolate cupcake recipes. This one, I replaced the water with 1/4 c heavy whipping cream and 1/4 c whole milk. I have to say, the chocolate flavor is delish. Very good. Texture was good. Not dry or crumbly.
light and fluffy, mild flavor.
I started baking this year and had been searching for the best chocolate cupcake. This recipe was the fourth, and by far, the best recipe I've tried. Thanks for this! :)
Moist & flavorful! I will agree with other readers - don't fill too much or batter will spill over. Filling about half-way yielded 24 cupcakes for me.
This is my first cupcake from scratch recipe I've tried I used coffee instead of water which gave it a fuller taste. Pretty satisfied with results. Cupcakes cake out very light and fluffy. DO NOT FILL MORE THAN HALFWAY! 2/3 is too much and will spill over.
Moist inside and crispy outside. They were awesome. I filled them with a blend of marshmallow cream (home made) and sweet butter. Topped some with ganache and some with swiss chocolate meringue. Very pleased.Be sure to pay attention to how full your cup is... 3/4 full was a bit much.... 1/2 was better (made 2 batches).I sprayed my papers with Pam Baking, the papers fell off
They were good, but I didn't pipe them. I just used a spoon to ice them. In my opinion, they were sort of moist, but maybe it's just me. They had a good texture, too. Instead of original milk chocolate I used mint chocolate. I never ever ever add salt when I bake so I would suggest that you leave out the salt. I think you should give a shot in making these.
