These are really good and very simple to make. The only problem I had was removing them from the muffin tins. I liberally sprayed the tins but still had hard time keeping these together even when removed 2 hours later!! Next time (and there will be a next time) I'll try paper cups. Thank you Inez. Update: I did these again but this time I used paper cups and it worked like a charm. I also omitted the choco chips. Do use paper cups. I've frozen a bunch for emergencies!! -
I made these for a bake sale and they were a hit! They came out very moist and delicious. I also did another version with strawberry batter and white chocolate chips. A hit with kids and adults alike.

Excellent easy recipe...the kids loved them! Alot less messy than the frosted ones for those toddlers to eat. Thanks for a great recipe that I'm sure to try again! -
Very easy and VERY GOOD. Thank you, MizzNezz for a KEEPER. Next time, I'm going to fix these in mini-muffin tins. As you said, good picnic or carry-out fare. -
I am looking for a recipe not a cake mix.

Yum! These are so delicious. Everyone who tried one was delighted. I used xylitol instead of sugar and also used the neufchatel (1/3 less fat) cheese instead of plain cream cheese. I loved the way the filling sunk into the cake... it was almost like a Hostess cupcake for adults. :) I baked them in a greased silicone muffin pan without papers and they popped out easily. Thanks for a yummy recipe!

After DH and I moved away from the farm, and to the city...I haven't done as much cooking and very little canning. But I do come to Zaar and look for new recipes once in a while. I'm still cooking Zaar!!
I like to play at Facebook, with my family and friends. A lot of my Zaar friends are there!! Yay! It's a good way to keep in touch.
We travel more. We're looking at the European trips now. Hope to go in the springtime. I really want to see London, I think I lived there in a past life, I've been obsessed with it since I was 10 years old!!
