Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb (450 g) cream cheese
- 2 eggs
- ¾ cups (180 g) granulated sugar
- Semi-sweet chocolate chips
Directions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C).
- Soften the cream cheese in the microwave in a bowl. Thirty seconds on a medium setting should be sufficient.
- Combine the cream cheese, eggs, and sugar.
- Line the pan with the papers.
- Put chocolate chips in the bottom of the cupcake papers, making less than a full layer; do not completely cover the bottom of the papers.
- Fill the cups with the cream cheese mixture, then place into the oven.
- Bake for about 15 minutes. The chocolate will melt and create a bottom to your cakes, but part of that chocolate will also bubble up through the cream cheese for an added effect.
- Remove and allow to cool for 20 minutes, until the chocolate hardens on the bottom and becomes crunchy.
Equipment
Cupcake papers, Cupcake pan, Microwave oven, Oven, Mixing bowl, Double boiler (optional)
Notes
You can also garnish the top of the cakes with chocolate that you melt in a double boiler.
