This week I tried a new recipe (sorry, there are no pictures this time).
Surprise Muffins
(Chocolate Chip Cream Cheese Cupcakes)
- 1 devil's food cake mix
- 1 8oz package cream cheese, softened
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate morsels
Prepare cake mix according to package directions. Spoon batter into paper-lined muffin pans, filling two-thirds full. Beat cream cheese and sugar at medium speed with an electric mixer until fluffy. Add egg, beating well; stir in chocolate morsels. Spoon 1 heaping teaspoon cream cheese mixture into center of each cupcake. Bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes. Remove from pans, and cool on wire racks. Store in refrigerator. Yield 2 dozen.
I used a homemade chocolate cake batter since I didn't have a cake mix on hand and it worked quite well. I also decided to cover the cream cheese mixture with a small scoop of the cake batter. I made 2 1/2 dozen muffins! :)
We have also been enjoying our freezer meals! Two spaghetti pies and one chicken tortillas are gone! We still have 1 more spaghetti pie left and then the chicken veggie lasagna.
What yummy foods have you been making in your kitchen???
My great aunt passed down a recipe like this called Black Bottom Cupcakes. So delicious!
