Angel Food Cupcakes

These are very good but I had to make a few changes. First of all, I could only find a 16 oz box of angel food cake mix made by Betty Crocker and while the box amount is less than the recipe requires, the mix made 29 cupcakes....not 12! One of the reviewers had suggested to fill the cupcake holders all the way full so make a bigger cupcake. I don't recommend this. I did it with my first batch and it was too much cake mix. The tops of the cupcakes ballooned out and ran into each other. I had to use a knife to seperate them from each other and then had to chisel the cupcakes off the muffin pan to get them out. The rest I filled at 3/4 full and they turned out perfect. Bigger than the 2/3 suggested in the recipe but smaller than filling them all the way and I had no problem getting them out of the muffin pan. I do agree with the same reviewer on having the oven set at 350 degrees instead of 375 and I found I didn't have to add an extra 5 minutes. I do know that oven temps can vary from oven to oven. On my oven, 15 minutes was perfect. So in summary, this is what I did..... Used a 16 oz box cake mix which made way more cupcakes than the recipe says it will. (Plus if I had filled all of the cupcake paper wrappers 3/4 of the way full I would have gotten even more!) Fill them 3/4 of the way full and bake at 350° for 15 minutes. Makes 2 to 3 dozen.

The first dozen I made turned out very crispy and dark so I turned the oven down to 350 degrees. Then I put the next batch in and left them in for about 5 minutes longer just until they started to turn golden. I would recommend maybe filling the baking cup to full for a more fluffy cupcake. Mine turned out very small at 2/3 filling but they were very delicious. I will make these again with a few alterations.

This was so easy to make and fast. They are great with strawberries or chocolate frosting. My kids just loved them. They are also good just plain. If your dieting this is the way to go NO FAT!

I don't see how this qualifies as a recipe at all. just buy the box and follow the instructions on the box. Why even put this on the net? this was a waste of my time looking for a good recipe. I only put 1 star cause there was nothing lower than this.

This is truely the greatest recipe of all time.

I can't believe this actually a recipe! Nonetheless, suppose it would be good with yellow mix or even with a Devil's Food cake mix... As long as you can read the box, you're in business!

Surely this is a product endorsement rather than a recipe? Only ingredient is packet mix!

OK, yes I understand why so many scoff at this "recipe." I did at first, but then I did some investigatin'. You can't follow the box because angel food cupcakes are not an option. No other ingredients are listed because you don't need anything else but water. I also agree that the temp needs to be 350, not 375. This is a low fat, easy to prepare treat, and I never thought of it myself. Don't knock it til ya try it!!

horrible. they turned out very small and pointless

Perfect for a sweet, but low-fat dessert. I added 2 tsp of almond extract to the batter and topped with just a little vanilla icing when cooled. Delicious!
