I just made these cupcakes and they have to be the best cupcake ever. The only thing different i did was reducet he almond extract in the icing to 1 tsp. I will make these many times over. Everyone loved them.

I already reviewed this recipe back in April but this site doesn't allow for editing, so here comes an addendum. I have made this recipe no less than TWENTY times since I received the recipe in a Betty Crocker email! These cupcakes have become a Legend within my friend's minds and is the MOST requested baked good that I make. I continue to add 1/2 milk/water and have also discovered that adding 1 teaspoon of vanilla to BOTH the cake mix and frosting really amplifies the almond flavouring. I've made it with and without the vanilla and the reaction is much more favourable to the vanilla version. Just passing on this Field Tested info.

My 14 year old daughter loves baking cupcakes. She made these last week and commented "Mom our family never eats all the cupcakes ~ EVER! And these disappeared." Her oldest brother has never been one to eat cake and he had 4!! They were as delicious as there were beautiful. She will be baking these for her aunt's upcoming wedding. Next time we will try the buttermilk suggestion from SeaChef1. Thanks for sharing such a wonderful recipe.

OMG - absolutely the best cupcake ever!! I used Heavy Cream in the frosting where it called for Heavy Whipping Cream - - unsure if there is a difference...but my entire family LOVED this, and I will TOO make them again and again. Beautiful, delicious, and relatively simple. Ahhh. Also, pinned to Pinterest ; )

As SeaChef wrote, this IS the !BEST! cupcake I've ever made, and I've been baking cupcakes from scratch for over 60 years!!!! Way back in the 40's and earlier, a Bride's Cake would be made by the family's best baker and the taste of these cupcakes is identical to what I remember loving about wedding cakes of yore. Beyond simple to make, I was initially freaked out by the 1 TABLESPOON of almond extract asked for in the cake batter...DON'T BE!!! It turns out phenominal! Also, like SeaChef, I used 1/2 water and 1/2 milk for the liquid; the fats in the milk make the cake moister. The frosting ratio was spot on for frosting 100% of the 10 Jumbo-sized cupcakes I made, replicating the pattern Betty Crocker showed for the frosting. I brought these to an anniversary party of 6 people and every.single.one. of the 10 cupcakes was devoured by the end, with two cupcakes needing to be split in half to "keep the peace". LOL I can't recommend this recipe enough; I plan to make it for every one of my special occasions and to make ordinary days a wee bit special, too. :)

Made these and took them to work. Several people that said they didn't even particularly like cake ate 2 or 3 of them. They taste very similar to good ole' wedding cake. Will make again and again.

I think this is the best cupcake I've ever had. I substituted lowfat buttermilk for the water. Made it very moist. Everyone loved them. I could see having this at a wedding easily.
