- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt

- 1 cup water
- 1 tablespoon white vinegar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1/3 cup white sugar
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions
- Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a muffin tin with paper liners.
- In a large bowl, mix together the flour, white sugar, cocoa powder, baking soda, and salt. Add in the vegetable oil, water, vinegar, and vanilla extract. Stir until the batter is smooth and well combined.
- In another bowl, beat together the cream cheese, white sugar, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
- Fill each muffin cup halfway with the chocolate batter. Drop a spoonful of the cream cheese mixture into the center of each cupcake. Sprinkle the chocolate chips on top.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20 to 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the chocolate part of the cupcake comes out clean.
- Allow the cupcakes to cool in the tin for 10 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely before serving.
