Not sure who posted this recipe originally but I just found it on here and was going to make it but whe I look at the cake mix box it says 140 calories for 1/12 of the box so even if you made 24 cupcakes that would be 70 calories each without the pineapple. Am I missing something? They do sound awesome I just can't quite figure how they could be 69 calories. Thanks!

    Maybe they have a different brand than you? I love "Diet Coke Cake" Cupcakes. They'd only be 70 cals each if you made 2 dozen.

    I think they might of made more then 24 cupcakes. I don't think pineapple add to much extra either and pineapple are a good weight loss supplement. So even if they did guess a little under the cupcakes still sound like a delicious and nutritious treat.

    Do these magic cupcakes ( of different assortments) come with frosting?

    Well, that answers that then! Seems like that would be pretty small cupcakes though.

    I just made them tonight and it made 30, but I filled the cups pretty full.
