CHOCOLATE SURPRISE CUPCAKES

Category: Cupcakes

1 pkg devil's food cake mix
1 (8 oz) pkg cream cheese, softened
1/3 cup sugar
1 egg
1 cup semi-sweet mini chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 350. Prepare cake mix according to package instructions. Spoon batter into paper-lined muffin or cupcake pans, filling 2/3 full. Beat cream cheese and sugar at medium speed with an electric mixer until fluffy. Add egg, beating well. Stir in mini chocolate chips.

Spoon 1 heaping teaspoon cream cheese mixture into center of each cupcake. Bake for 25 minutes. Remove from pans and cool on wire racks. Store in refrigerator until dessert time! (The surprise is that the cream cheese mixture becomes a hidden filling inside the cupcakes.)
