I think I would definitely increase the amount of cocoa powder. One Tbl. cocoa powder for 24 cupcakes just isn't happening in this house! :)

With the ganache, cream cheese filling, and chocolate mocha cake, I don't see how she could pronounce it 'tasteless'... and the 'sandy' comment sounds like she overbaked the cake OR undermixed the filling.

Eagles may soar, but weasels don't get sucked into jet engines.

Cheezz ~ how much would you increase the cocoa powder for this recipe ~ I'm thinking of making it - dianncy1964 - 6:31pm on 09/06/08

uh, would 1 tbl. per cupcake be too much .... heeheehee - cheezz - 10:22pm on 09/06/08
Oh! And, of course, if you increase the cocoa powder, DEcrease the flour accordingly! [NT] - cheezz - 9:08am on 09/07/08

They sound good but I think I'd go with the first one that contains buttermilk... - cheezz - 9:10am on 09/07/08

cheezz, I think you will get the same moisture with the milk and sour cream in the recipe. [NT] - GayR - 12:19pm on 09/07/08

sounds like we just have to do a side-by-side recipe comparison... anyone volunteer?! [NT] - cheezz - 3:21pm on 09/07/08
