Chocolate Cream Cheese Cupcakes
Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a cupcake tin with cupcake liners.
-
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
-
In a separate large bowl, cream together the butter and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract.
-
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
-
Divide the batter evenly among the cupcake liners, filling each about 2/3 full. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Remove the cupcakes from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
In a mixing bowl, beat together the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and heavy cream until smooth and creamy.
-
Melt the semi-sweet chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a pot of simmering water.
-
Once the cupcakes have cooled, frost them with the cream cheese mixture. Drizzle the melted chocolate over the cupcakes.
-
Allow the chocolate to set for a few minutes before serving.
