Just made these cupcakes. Doubled the recipe. Put it in the oven at 395 for 20 minutes. Every cupcake was completely burnt. I was able to try the inside that wasn't burnt and it was great. Cupcakes were very pretty. However I wasted all those ingredients and now I have to remake them. Not impressed. - 5/25/15
