I LOVE, LOVE these! These are a big hit in my house and I’m all about size so that they are huge is a big bonus :) THanks for all you do Roni!

Another terrific, quick recipe. Thank you so much Roni. I made these for my son’s birthday. My husband and I just tasted one fresh out of the oven. Yum!

I have to admitt I was skeptical. Chocolate cake/muffins are my favorite.

This recipie really delivered! Great taste, great texture. They baked up big and fluffy! My 5 yr old loved them. I ate 2 and blew my points for the day. But it was worth it! :O) LOL!

These were amazing. I had no idea the pumpkin would make them so moist. I’m going to try it next with a spice cake. The kids loved putting the sprinkles on, even they made a big mess. And they have no idea they are eating pumpkin.

I just made these tonight. I was able to get 15 cupcakes on this batch and will try for 18 slightly smaller ones on the next batch. I have 2 girlfriends on WW, too, so they are going to LURVE these! Thanks, Roni!

I have made these before, and want to try them with a different cake mix also. We froze what we weren’t going to use quickly and they were perfect! I love pumpkin and thought it would be great with a spice cake mix also…Speaking of pumpkin…Roni, have you got other recipes that call for pumpkin that are dessert type things posted in here in GreenLiteBites?? Always looking for that kind of stuff!

I made these again..
It was a reduced fat Devil’s food cake mix
they turned out the same as a reg. cake mix. Tasted just as good.
I did add the water.
I always make 18 cup cakes still very nice size cup cake.

I am anxious to see your carrot cake bread.

Hana,

The water definitely is optional (I should add that). Sorry you have a hard time with them. Try an egg white or two, it will help bind it a bit more!

I tried this recipe this weekend and mine came out SUPER moist…overly moist in my opinion. They were falling apart when I picked them up! I let them cool completely and everything, but still falling apart.

They tasted great, don’t get me wrong - will play with it a little and try the recipe with no water next time.

Oh wow, these were great! They were definately huge too. They came out moist and dense, but not quite sweet enough. Maybe that was the type of cake mix I used though!
