It's on c6 for the "Win black's queen" puzzle and on d8 for the "Checkmate in two" puzzle.

Nice puzzle. Got it at first attempt by assuming each move checked the White King. Is there a reason the Black King is not on the board?

I think 1.BxQ is the best move in your puzzle, you might need to refine it some.

I also have a twin for you that results in mate in 4 but there are 2 key moves that lead to mate in 4:

Here is a nice mate in 6 with only one key move, your job is to find it wink.

Here is another mate in 6, once again there is only one key move that delivers mate in 6:
