Sooooooo Goooooooood

I thought I might share some of my favorite recipes from time to time. Here are my FAVORITE cupcakes of all time. No need for frosting on these bad boys...oh no. They've got a cream cheese filling that is scrumptious. You must give them a try. They're easy to make and always a hit. I only use Ghiradelli cocoa powder and Ghiradelli chocolate chips (the 60% cocoa ones). They're rich and chocolately. Today would be a great day to make them. Here's the recipe...
Black and White Cupcakes
Filling:
1C cream cheese
1 unbeaten egg
1/4C sugar
1/8t salt
1C Ghiradelli chocolate chips

Cupcakes:
1t baking soda
1t salt
1-1/2Cflour
3/4C sugar
1/4C Ghiradelli cocoa
1t vinegar
1t vanilla
1C water
1/3C oil

For filling, beat together cream cheese, egg, sugar and salt. Mix well then stir in chocolate chips. For cupcakes, sift together soda, salt, flour and cocoa. Add sugar. In a separate bowl, combine vinegar, vanilla, water and oil. Add to flour mixture until just combined. Fill muffin tins with cupcake mixture. Top each one with a little filling. Bake at 350 degrees for 30-35 minutes. They freeze well but are best when served warm. Makes 12.

  4. Thank you, thank you, thank you for posting the recipe for your black and white cupcakes. I have been checking Lisa's blog everyday to see if you had given out your secret to suck scrumptious looking cupcakes. I can't wait to try them.

    Lisa seems like a great friend. I don't know her personally but out of the blue she left a comment on my much forgotten blog encouraging me to give it another try. I did and am having so much fun.
