These happen to be my favorite cupcake! I love cream cheese frosting, chocolate chips and chocolate cake! Well this recipe combines all of those yummy ingredients to create a mouthwatering treat. The middle of the cupcake has a surprise of cream cheese and chocolate chips. I like to add toffee bits to the cream cheese filling sometimes for an added crunch and flavor. The cake is moist the frosting sweet and the middle, divine!! I haven't meet anyone who hasn't loved this cupcake!
