Chocolate Cheesecake filled Cupcakes-the best of both chocolate cake and cheesecake, and so easy to make!
I also adore cheesecake. I mean it’s true love. I just don’t get to have it that often. When you make a cheesecake, you’ve got this big scrumptious cheesecake in the fridge haunting/taunting you to just go get another slice. It won’t hurt you. Three slices later, as much as you love cheesecake, you’re done with it for a while.
Now I will warn you, these cupcakes are just as addicting, so you’ll have to monitor your own intake. Don’t hold me responsible if you find yourself eating more than one. After all, I don’t have anyone else to blame for the empty cupcake wrappers in the trash.
Easy cheesecake filling surrounded by moist chocolate cake. I don’t feel as guilty as a could, after all there’s no frosting needed on these cupcakes. It’s almost like these are diet food. OK, I know I just pushed it with that statement.
These cupcakes travel well so perfect for a picnic or potluck dinner. And you can freeze them, so IF you have any leftover, you can save them for a later time.

Notes
These cupcakes are our favorite family Christmas treat! We’ve learned to put the batter in a pitcher to fill the cupcake liners since it’s kind of runny. These freeze very well, too.
Those look absolutely sinful. I have to make them.
I grew up eating these, we called them black bottom cupcakes. Love them still to this day. Thanks for sharing
I made these cupcakes this past week..OMG how delicious they tasted. My 4 sons and the husband devoured them in one day.. Thank you so much for this perfect recipe ..Will be making these over and over.. Thank you again.
I made these cupcakes last night for a family reunion. Luckily I tasted them and realized they were definitely not what I wanted so I got up early today to make another dessert. The chocolate is not “chocolate-y” enough and the “cheesecake” lacked flavor. I believe more cocoa, an egg (and some necessary adjustment of the flour) would help the cupcake portion immensely.
