Black Bottom Cupcakes

Also known as "Black Bottom Muffins", "Chocolate Chip Cheesecake" Cupcakes, Cream Cheese Top Cupcakes, Black&Whites, the names continueee!

my first batch ever.

No frosting on these babies. They're sweet enough without it. It'd taste overwhelming.

Black bottom cupcakes, oh how I hate thee but love thee so much at the same time.

The first time I ever made these, they came out AMAZINGLY and tasted like perfection. I have yet to duplicate the batch since then. It's soooo frustrating! Honestly, these were the first things I've EVER messed up, and I almost cried when I messed up the 2nd batch.

Chris, Robert, and Jo were all there when I freaked out. I think it was the first time I've ever failed and made something inedible.

I made a batch last week that turned out decent, but they weren't exactly like my first batch. It drives me nuts. I can't seem to remake them!
