      That is so adorable! Looks tasty too! You encountered no problems baking in an actual paper coffee cup?

      hi vf, no problems, except for putting in the batter cleanly. i've baked in paper cups before, and as long as they are unwaxed cups, you should be fine.

      do you grease them before adding the batter?

      I think I put on 6 punds just scrolliing through these tasty little treats!!
      And I though my chocolate craving was bad at 7pm!

      great shot.

      that puts starbucks to shame!

      saffron, i didn't, and it didn't hurt the removal of paper from cupcake. you can always serve this with a little spoon, of course.

      starknaught, virtual pounds, virtual pounds :D

      lariffic, i have more! the recipe makes 30 standard sized cupcakes (supposedly), but i got 18 espresso cup sized ones from it.

      jleighb, i normally don't eat the cupcakes i make, but i had to try these and i have to say they are one of the best cupcakes i've ever had.

      melika, if starbucks starts selling something similar, you'll know where they got the idea from!
