We really enjoyed these. They were esy to make and we loved the center. I got 24 cupcakes from this. Next time I will probably make more filling as my kids said they wish the cupcakes had mroe of it. I did not frost htese.....it wasn't needed. Thanks.

I made these cupcakes for my daughter's 2nd birthday and everyone raved about them! They are delicious and moist. The cream cheese "surprise" is wonderful. I had a lot of the cream cheese mixture left over and filled two cupcake tins with it. They made good mini cheesecakes 
I will be using this recipe over and over, thanks for sharing it!

These were so yummy! I made them for a cake walk at my daughter's school. I did find that this recipe made 24 cupcakes. I colored the frosting orange, and topped them off with a small piece of black licorice, and a green gumdrop shaped like a leaf. They really looked like cute pumpkins for Halloween. Thank you for the recipe!

This was a suprise for me since I didn't know how it would turn out! But I found that it's basically a chocolate cupcake with a cream cheese (with chocolate chips) center. Very simple and tastes great! I wonder if there is a larger version....
