  Baked at 170 (fan oven) for 15 minutes and they sunk when we got them out. Tasted gorgeous, so will try them again and cook for a few minutes longer. Very quick receipe tho, very kiddie friendly.

  Really quick and easy to make and didn't last long at all. I topped them with crumbled cadbury's flake and they looked fab!

  Perfect recipe! Made exactly 16 beautiful cupcakes that were ready after exactly 12 minutes. Takes just minutes to make, and these will become a favorite in my home!

  Delicious! Really easy and simple to make. Used butter icing for the frosting as I didn't have any chocolate. Yummy!!

  I also creamed the butter & sugar before adding the remainder of the cupcake ingredients and made a white chocolate frosting instead - beautiful!

  Just made these for a dinner party. Super easy and it was delicious and everyone loved it! I didn't have any maltesers or small chocolate balls, so I replaced them with some chopped almonds and macadamia nuts. It worked wonders! Will definately be making this again!

  These were easy to make but personally not chocolatey enough for me! The icing was nice though.

  My 13-year old daughter is mad on baking .. and bakes the best cup-cakes I've ever eaten. These Chocolate Fudge Easter Cakes are superb ... and terribly moreish. I think there'll be another batch made next weekend too! These were equally as good to eat, and easy to make, as the Lemon (and poppyseed) cupcakes also on the Good Food site .. and I didn't think the Lemon ones could be beaten. However, these Choc-Fudge ones are now tied in first place!!

  I made these, as well as some simnel muffins, which were also delicious, for a Fairtrade coffee morning the school were holding. The cakes were delicious and much better than any shop bought ones, I used the tip another person made about crumbling a flake to resemble a nest, superb.

  Thought these were abnsolutely fantastic. Very easy. Swapped the malteasers and milk chocolate for mini eggs as so many others have done. And used chocolate philadelphia in my buttercream.

  This is the best chocolate cupcake recipe, I make these regularly for afternoon tea at my guesthouse. So incredibly simple and easy to make. Instead of the suggested icing, I just pipe on a standard vanilla buttercream icing.

  So easy and scrummy! Made these with my 4 yr old daughter - she was able to to almost of all of it on her own and was so proud of her cakes, which are nice and moist. We didn't have chocolate for the frosting so we made chocolate butter icing using cocoa. Will definitely be making these again.
