Black Bottom Cupcakes

I got this recipe from the inside of a store-brand cream cheese box. Of course it called for all the store-brand items, but I'm not naming the brand here. You just feel free to use whichever cream cheese, sugar, chocolate chips and Devil's Food cake you love. That's what I'm going to do...

Stay tuned for picture this weekend!
