This is a wonderful great tasting moist chocolate cake. Texture is perfect. I had no cake flour so I put 2 tablespoons of cornstarch in a measuring cup and filled it to to top with regular white flour. No other changes were made. This made 10 cupcakes using regular size liners and filled about 1/2 inch or a little less from top. Tops came out perfect for frosting.
