Cream Cheese Filling:

227 gm cream cheese - room temperature

70 gm castor sugar

1 large egg

1/2 tsp. vanilla extract

Chocolate Cupcakes:- (12 - 14 muffin cups)

210 gm multi purpose flour

210 gm light brown sugar

30 gm cocoa powder

1 tsp. baking powder

1/4 tsp. salt

240 ml water

80 ml vegetable oil

1 tsp. vanilla extract

Method:-

Cream Cheese Filling - In your food processor or electric mixer, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add in sugar, egg and vanilla extract and beat until creamy and smooth. Set aside while you make the Chocolate Cupcake batter.

Chocolate Cupcakes - First, in a large bowl, sift together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and salt. Add in sugar and mix well. In the separate bowl, mix the water, oil and vanilla extract. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and stir in the wet ingredients until just nice and smooth. Evenly divide the batter among the 12 muffin cups. Then spoon a few tablespoons of the cream cheese filling into the center of each cupcake.

Bake in the preheated oven for about 25 minutes (as for my oven it took 18 minutes only) or until the cream cheese filling is a little brown and the cupcakes feel springy to the touch. Remove from oven and place on a wire rack to cool.
