Over the weekend, we celebrated Dan's birthday. We had a delicious meal, enjoyed quality family time and, indulged in delicious desserts! My contribution in the sweets department; Aunt Jackie's Black Bottom Cups. Their layered look makes for a cute presentation. They're perfectly moist and are a delicious combination of creamy and chocolaty.
Combine:
1 cup (8 oz.) cream cheese, softened
1 unbeaten egg
1/3 cup sugar
1/8 tsp. salt
Beat well. Stir in 1 cup chocolate chips.
In a separate bowl, sift together:
1 1/2 cups flour
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup cocoa
1 tsp. soda
1/2 tsp. salt
Add:
1 cup water
1 tsp. vinegar
1/3 cup cooking oil
1 tsp. vanilla
Beat well. Fill muffin cups 1/3 full with chocolate mixture. Top with cream cheese mixture. Sprinkle with a little sugar and chopped nuts (optional). Bake at 350 degrees for 30-35 minutes. Makes 18-20.
