*Variations: 
Chocolate Surprise Cupcakes:
Use amount of baking soda stated in recipe, or reduce by 1/2 tsp. Take care to place the Cream Cheese Filling directly in the center of the cupcake without touching the sides.  These cupcakes will be flatter in appearance and the filling will sink inside the cupcake and the batter will rise around it for a cream cheese surprise center when eaten!

 Chocolate Cream Cheese Swirl Cupcakes:
Use amount of baking soda directed in recipe and add 1/2 tsp baking powder.  When placing the Cream Cheese mixture on the cupcake, allow the mixture to touch the sides. The batter will rise more, creating a more rounded cupcake and the Cream Cheese will remain visible on top and be swirled in with the chocolate batter.
