My best friends mom, Augusta, would make these when we had sleepovers when we were little girls. This recipe needs no icing because the cream cheese surprise is in the inside. I still make these today, but now for my grown kids. These are moist and delicious and there is no fuss to making these. You don't need to bring out the mixer, just add all the ingredients to a bowl, stir to combine and bake. Super easy.
In a large mixing bowl. Mix all the ingredients together until combined. You can use a mixer or do this by hand. No need to get out the mixer for this one though.
In a cupcake pan lined with cupcake papers, add 1/4 cup batter into each cup or enough batter to fill the cup halfway. Top each with 1 T. cream cheese mixture.
Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes. Cool before eating. Store in an airtight container.
Topping
Mix cream cheese, egg, sugar, and salt in a small bowl and mix to combine until creamy. Fold in the chocolate chips.
Recipe Note
Note: These cupcakes freeze nicely, so bake ahead and have them ready for your next get together.
