If you google it will give you the equivalent in grams. If using a one cup measuring cup it’s always the same. I have to do it when I find a recipe in grams I prefer this way as the U.S has not went to grams makes it better for us here to follow a recipe this way in the U.S.thank you for posting this recipe Sue so nice

Hi Jenna. I’m sorry you had such a horrible experience with this recipe. First of all, I’m a one person business, and I do make mistakes. The omission in the directions can easily be fixed, and I appreciate you pointing those out. I’ve gotten better over time with double checking but things still slip through the cracks. Secondly, I’ll retest this recipe soon and will make necessary adjustments to it. I do have to say that the vanilla buttercream is pretty classic, so I’m not sure why you thought it was flavorless. Will test that again too.

Worst recipe ever. I should’ve read it carefully before starting. If I’d noticed the errors, I’d have found another recipe and not wasted an evening baking these. The recipe calls for 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder and 1/4 cup of brown sugar for the cupcake mix. But the instructions for making the cupcakes leave these out as dry ingredients to blend with the flour, baking soda, salt, cocoa, and sugar. Adding further confusion, the recipe says to mix the buttermilk, egg, and vanilla, making me wonder why it says, “egg” instead of “eggs.” Two are called for in the ingredients list. The batter was runny and on the bitter side; I had to add a significant amount of sugar to sweeten it. To top it off, the frosting was stiff and nearly flavorless.
