Top 10 List: Best Cupcake Recipes
[We continue to update the “Top 10” series of posts with cupcakes!]
Cupcakes have taken on a life of their own over the last ten years or so. Chic little shops have popped up everywhere, there are numerous TV shows based on the handheld confections, and the flavor combinations seem endless. Aside from two cupcake shops (Baked & Wired in the Georgetown neighborhood of Washington, DC and a now-closed cupcake shop in Delray Beach, FL), I have yet to be blown away by any cupcake from any of those chic little shops. Most times I find the cupcakes to be rather dry and the frosting just okay.
As a result, I revel in making cupcakes at home. All kinds of cupcakes – chocolate, vanilla, pumpkin, red velvet, boozy – it’s all fair game. Below is an updated list of my 10 favorite cupcake recipes… Enjoy!
1. Coconut Cupcakes with Toasted Coconut Frosting
2. Dark Chocolate Cupcakes with Peanut Butter Frosting
3. Guinness, Whiskey and Irish Cream Cupcakes
6. Mocha Cupcakes with Espresso Frosting
7. Pumpkin Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Frosting
8. Pumpkin Spice Latte Cupcakes
9. Red Velvet Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Frosting
10. Ultimate Chocolate Cupcakes
Q: What are YOUR favorite cupcake recipes? And do you have any requests?
I wanted a good cupcake recipe, now I just want Tylenol and sleep. Most ridiculous thing I’ve ever seen in my life is hate on a cupcake site, both sides. Appalling, really.

Hi Stacy, These are my favorite vanilla cupcakes (just omit the sprinkles): https://www.browneyedbaker.com/homemade-funfetti-cupcakes-from-scratch/
How do you make them less dry?? We made the funfetti recipe, they were tasty, but dry.
Would love a lemon cupcake & also a praline kind of cupcake. So many flavors! Thanks for these.
