Chocolate Surprise Cupcakes
Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a cupcake pan with cupcake liners.
-
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, and salt.
-
In a large bowl, cream together the butter and 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, alternating with the milk. Mix until just combined. Fold in the chocolate chips.
-
Fill each cupcake liner about two-thirds full with the batter. 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 pan for 5 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
-
In a small bowl, beat together the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and food coloring until smooth and creamy.
-
Once the cupcakes are completely cooled, use a small knife to cut a small hole in the center of each cupcake. Fill the holes with the cream cheese mixture.
-
Serve and enjoy!
