Рецепт Black Bottom Cupcakes
Black Bottom Cupcakes
When I was all done crafting so many dishes from Mexico, I was craving something chocolate. So, what’s a girl to do? I know, I know, I am always craving chocolate. That’s what happens when you are a chocoholic, right? Well that’s what they tell me anyway.
I started scouring around in the pantry and the fridge to see what I had on hand. I like baking cupcakes, because of portion control. Then right there in my brand new Whirlpool Gold Fridge, next to the butter, I spotted the cream cheese. I knew I had to make these Black Bottom Cupcakes.

Ingredients
FILLING:
- 8-ounce block ⅓ less fat cream cheese, room temperature
- 3 Tablespoons best of the egg product
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste
- ¼ cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- CUP CAKE:
- 1½ cups all-purpose flour
- ¼ cup brown sugar, packed

- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt (optional)
- 1 cup water
- ⅓ cup canola oil
- 1 tablespoon cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Line muffin tin cups with paper liners or spray with cooking spray. Set aside.
First make the filling: In a small bowl, beat cream cheese, egg, sugar and vanilla bean paste until combined and fluffy.
Stir in chocolate chips and set aside.
Then make the cupcake batter. In a small bowl, stir water, oil, vinegar and vanilla until combined.
Add liquid mixture to dry ingredients, pouring into the well.
Fold gently until well blended.
Divide cake batter evenly among prepared muffin cups.
Then divide the filling evenly over cake batter by spooning a dollop of the cream cheese filling over the cake batter.
Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until cake is set. Let cool in pan for 5 minutes and then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

I can’t remember the last time I had a black bottom cupcake. Who remembers that great bakery in San Francisco called Just Desserts?
That’s where I tasted my first black bottom cupcake. I mean we are talking about the days when I worked in the Financial District in The City. I haven’t worked there since 1989. Yup, it was that long ago.
Got my chocolate craving all fixed. For now!
Help yourself to one or two. I won’t mind, really!
Thanks for stopping by and have a great day.
