How to Make Cream Cheese And Chocolate Muffin Cakes

  1. **Make the Cream Cheese Filling:**
  2. In a medium bowl, beat together 4 ounces (113g) softened cream cheese, 1 large egg, and 1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar until completely smooth and creamy.
  3. Gently fold in 1/2 cup (60g) chocolate chips.
  4. Set aside.
  5. **Make the Muffin Batter:**
  6. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease and flour the cups.
  7. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups (190g) all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar, 1/4 cup (30g) unsweetened cocoa powder, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  8. Add 1/2 cup (120ml) milk, 1/4 cup (60ml) vegetable oil, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract to the dry ingredients.
  9. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed for 2 minutes, or until well combined.
  10. Spoon 1/4 cup of batter into each muffin cup.
  11. Dollop 1 rounded teaspoon of cream cheese filling onto the batter in each cup. Gently swirl with a knife or toothpick for a marbled effect.
  12. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  13. Let cool in the muffin tin for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
