Ingredients

1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened

1-1/2 cups sugar, divided

1 egg

1 teaspoon salt, divided

1 cup (6 ounces) semisweet chocolate chips

1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1/4 cup baking cocoa

1 teaspoon baking soda

1 cup water

1/3 cup vegetable oil

1 tablespoon white vinegar

FROSTING:

3-3/4 cups confectioners' sugar

3 tablespoons baking cocoa

1/2 cup butter, melted

6 tablespoons milk

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/3 cup chopped pecans

Directions

For filling, in a small mixing bowl, beat cream cheese and 1/2 cup sugar until smooth.

Beat in egg and 1/2 teaspoon salt until combined. Fold in chocolate chips; set aside.

In a bowl, combine the flour, cocoa, baking soda, and remaining sugar and salt. In another bowl, whisk the water, oil and vinegar; stir into dry ingredients just until moistened.

Fill paper-lined muffin cups half full with batter.

Drop filling by heaping tablespoonfuls into the center of each.

Bake at 350° for 24-26 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in cake comes out clean.

Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks to cool completely.

For frosting, in a large mixing bowl, combine confectioners' sugar, cocoa, butter, milk and vanilla; beat until blended.

Frost cupcakes; sprinkle with pecans.

Store in the refrigerator.

Yield: 20 cupcakes.

Help! I don't understand one of the steps or maybe there is one missing? I set the cream cheese mixture aside, mix the dry ingredients and add the vinegar mix to the dry but when to I incorporate the first mixture, the cream cheese one?

Read carefully, the cheese/choclate chip filling is dropped in the center of one half of the batter , then covered by rest of batter in each cupcake tin
