Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Mini Chocolate Chip Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Filling.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare 44 miniature muffin cups by greasing them or lining them with paper liners. This will ensure your cupcakes come out easily and look great!
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, 1/2 cup of sugar, the egg, and 1/8 teaspoon of salt. Beat these ingredients together until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Once it's well combined, gently fold in the miniature chocolate chips, creating a delicious filling for your cupcakes.
Step 3
In another bowl, sift together the flour, 1 cup of sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. This step is crucial for achieving a light and fluffy texture in your cupcakes. Next, add in the water, vegetable oil, vinegar, and vanilla extract. Mix everything until the batter is evenly combined and smooth.
Step 4
Now, it’s time to fill those muffin cups! Pour the batter into each cup, filling them about one-third full. Then, take about 1 teaspoon of the cream cheese filling and place it on top of the batter in each cup. For a sweet finishing touch, sprinkle the remaining 2 tablespoons of sugar over the tops of the cupcakes.
Step 5
Bake your mini cupcakes in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes. To check if they’re done, insert a toothpick into the side of a cupcake; it should come out clean. Once baked, let them cool before serving.
