- Make the filling by combining the cream cheese. 1/3 cup sugar, egg, pinch of salt, and chocolate chips. Refrigerate until ready to use. (Can be made up to 3 days in advance.)
- Preheat oven to 325°F. Put 12 fluted paper cups in a muffin tin and set aside.
- Combine the flour, 2 cups sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt in a mixing bowl.
- In a pitcher, combine the water, oil, vinegar, and vanilla. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and whip with an electric mixer for 3 minutes. Pour the batter evenly into the prepared muffin tin. Top each cupcake with 1-2 tablespoons of the cream cheese filling.
- Bake for 28 minutes. Cool in the pan before serving.
