Vegan Cheesecake-Filled Cupcakes

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Vegan Cheesecake-Filled Cupcakes.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C) and lining 18 muffin cups with cheerful paper liners.

2. Step 2

   In a spacious mixing bowl, combine the flour, sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt, giving it a good stir to blend everything together.

3. Step 3

   Next, pour in the water, vegetable oil, white vinegar, and vanilla extract, mixing gently until just combined—remember, a little lumpiness is perfectly fine; we don’t want to overdo it! In a separate bowl, take your vegan cream cheese and sugar, and beat them together until they’re smooth and creamy.

4. Step 4

   Then, add in the vegan yogurt, cornstarch, a splash more of vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt, mixing until everything is well incorporated.

5. Step 5

   Now, fold in those delightful chocolate chips that will add a burst of flavor to your cupcakes.

6. Step 6

   It’s time to assemble! Fill each muffin cup about two-thirds full with the rich chocolate batter.

7. Step 7

   Then, take a generous tablespoon of the creamy vegan filling and dollop it right on top of the chocolate batter in each cup.

8. Step 8

   If you’re feeling a little extra, sprinkle a touch of sugar on top for a sweet finish.

9. Step 9

   Pop these beauties into your preheated oven and bake for around 20 minutes, or until both the cupcake and the creamy filling are set and ready to shine.

10. Step 10

    Once they’re done, let the cupcakes cool in the pan for about 30 minutes—this will help them firm up and make them easier to handle.

    After that, they’re ready to be enjoyed! Indulge in these delicious vegan cheesecake-filled cupcakes and savor every bite of this delightful treat!.
