Chocolate Cream Cheese Cupcakes

1 box chocolate cake mix- Mix the batter as stated on the box, however do it in this order:*Eggs- beat until frothy and light yellow*Add water and oil and ONE HALF (1/2) large box of chocolate cook n' serve pudding mix*Then add the chocolate cake mix and a small amount of vanilla (around 1/2 tsp or so)Cream Cheese Filling:1 8oz brick cream cheese1/2 cup sugar1 egg1/2 to 1 tsp vanillamini chocolate chips (optional)*Mix all ingredients, adding as many (or none) chocolate chips as desired

Spoon cupcake batter into paper cupcake liners as usual, adding about one teaspoon of cream cheese batter in the centers. Spoon a tiny amount of batter on top of cream cheese, although it's okay if the cream cheese is still showing.Bake according to your cake mix box instructions, although my friend said hers were supposed to go in 18-22 minutes and she took them out at 13-15 minutes. You want the toothpick to come out almost clean. Frost with whatever frosting you want and top with sprinkles.
