Cooked the cupcakes as long as the recipe stated. Cupcakes were done yet within minutes of them cooling, they sunk. Other than that issue, everything was heavenly. BIG hit with the family and friends.

I made these for Thanksgiving and everyone loved them! To garnish, I sprinkled ground cinnamon on top and put a whole pecan on top. They looked great!

These are ridiculously good. Everytime I make them someone thanks me. Don't skimp on the ingredients for the frosting - its the star of the show. Use real butter and I use premium cinnamon.

Absolutely LOVE this recipe. I make these for my friends and family. My boyfriend, son, and I can't resist them and I have to make a second batch. I also make them in my jumbo muffin pan :)

Everyone LOVED this recipe! I made it to the specifications and the only thing I noticed is that they frosting was really rich so you don't need a lot on each one. Because of that, I ended up with a lot of extra frosting. I froze it and I'll use it next time I make this or with pumpkin bread.

These are delicious and were a huge hit at my friend's pre-Thanksgiving party! I'll definitely make them again - probably for my family's Thanksgiving day celebration. The icing tastes amazing!
