Cream Filled Cupcakes

Cupcake:
1 cake mix of your choice (strawberry, fudge, devils food...)

Preheat oven as directed on box.
Prepare as directed into paper lined cupcakes filling 2/3 full, but do not bake.

Cream Filling:
1 8oz package cream cheese; softened
1/3 cup sugar
1 egg
pinch of salt
1 cup chocolate chips (optional, but good!)

Mix all ingredients together stirring well. Take a small scoop and scoop about a 1 inch ball into the center of each cupckae filled with unbaked batter. No need to push the filling down or cover it, the cupcake will rise over the filling and keep the filling right smack in the center of the cupcake!
Bake as directed!

Optional filling:
Cream Cheese Frosting Filling
1 8oz package cream cheese
4 cups powdered sugar
splash of lemon juice
dash of salt
1 egg
1 cup of chocolate chips
