Applesauce adds moisture and replaces fat in these rich-tasting chocolate cupcakes. Double the recipe and freeze the extras.

"I made these with 1/2 cup raspberry apple sauce and 1/2 cup pomegranate apple sauce. I skipped the chips. Still satisfied the chocolate craving in the house. I topped them with a cream cheese frosting."

The sugar and egg white is what gives it most of it's structure, so it gets drier when it's cool.

I must have made it wrong, or this recipe is bad. After creating a batch 2 times i found that they were not moist at all, They tasted OK. But im not sure why they werent moist.

I thought the flavor a little strong, but that very well may have been due to the amount of chocolate chips I used. It was not quite as moist as I had been hoping.
