The last commenter said something very similar, so you're definitely not alone. The original recipe that I based it off of is <a href="http://www.pomwonderful.com/recipes/pom-chocolate-cupcakes-with-chocolate-or-vanilla-frosting/?wpmp_switcher=desktop" rel="nofollow">here</a>, if that helps at all.

Cupcakes were LOVELY but the frosting just would not work for me :( It was so watery that I ended up taking out half of the liquid after adding about 4 cups of powdered sugar. Then I added like 3 more cups and finally got something that resembled frosting. My sister only had margarine, could that have been the problem? The recipe says "cup" of juice. Is it really supposed to be a cup or actually supposed to be less? Aw. Let me know. Thanks! I tried to make these this afternoon.

I am so sorry about the frosting! This is exactly how I made it, and it held together without getting runny---the only thing I can think is maybe the mixture didn't come to a full boil first? I wish I could be of more help! But either way, you did exactly what you should: used your head and came up with an alternative solution. Glad you all enjoyed these! Miriam!

I made these on Sunday and they were/are delicious. My only comment is that my frosting went crazy. I double checked my measuring but i yield'd loads of very runny frosting, so much so i had to ditch it and use my own receipe frosting. Should it have been very runny? I brought the remainder in to work today and shared them out. They were gone in 30secs!!! Mmmmm… I made these on Sunday and they were/are delicious.
