I made these up tonight for dessert and they are almost gone already(that's just between 2 people!). I will put them in my husband's lunch box for tomorrow's lunch for a treat! Thanks Kree, these are real good!

This is my very FIRST cupcake from scratch. I've been craving for home made chocolate chip cupcakes and I ran out of milk so this recipe is PERFECT! I uploaded a picture of my before & after. :) I made enough for 6 cupcakes and the recipe is exact to a T no waste! I'm bringing 5 cupcakes to work tomorrow for my boys. <br/><br/>I hope anyone that reads this will try it!

I made these for a bake sale so I didn't get to try any, but from what people said they were good. One guy even came back and asked for more-but that time we were out! Thanks for the great recipe, I will be sure to make again so that I can try some too!
