The weather isn’t too bad yet so I thought I’d do some baking. I need to make something to thank Colin’s sister and family for all the work they’ve been doing in the barns since Colin got sick. They love chocolate so I whipped up some Black Bottom Cupcakes. Not my favourite because of the cream cheese, but they always are the first to disappear when I take them places. These cupcakes are quick and easy to make and don’t need to be iced.
makes 3 dozen
White Part:
Beat together 8 oz cream cheese, 1 egg, and 1/3 c sugar. Then stir in 6 oz mini chocolate chips. Set aside.
Chocolate Part:
2 c flour 3/4 t salt
1 1/2 t bk soda 3/8 c cocoa
1 1/2 c wt. sugar 1 1/2 c water
1 1/2 t vinegar 1 t vanilla
1/2 c oil
Line muffin tins. Fill 1/3 full with chocolate part. Top with 2 t white part.
Bake 350F for 20 minutes, or until done.
Note: I’ve entered these over at Sweet as Sugar Cookies, head over and see all the other yumminess that’s baking in blogland.
These look easy and yummy and would be a big hit here!
They are easy and yummy, and just as easy to eat -Colin had 3 for lunch dessert!
Cream cheese and chocolate are just so rich and delicious when put together. Thanks for linking these up to Sweets for a Saturday.
