I have made many recipes from AllRecipes, many of them good or great, but this is the first spectacular enough to rate. I will never make cupcakes the "old" way again. The filling is out-of-this world -- the slight tang of the cream cheese contrasts so nicely with the rich chocolate of the cupcake and the chocolate chips make it extra special. I did cheat a bit -- I used a mix for the cupcakes, but you'd never know with the great filling! By the way, this works equally well as a swirl-style filling for cake. Just dollop the filling on top of the batter in the pan and use a knife to swirl it in. Mmmmmm, it's so delicious and so easy! I make the filling right in the same bowl as the cake mix -- just pour the cake mix into your cupcake pan or cake pan, throw the filling ingredients into the bowl, give it a quick mix, and dollop onto the cupcakes or cake. So easy. Definitely try this filling!
