1
box Betty Crocker® SuperMoist® devil's food cake mix
Water, vegetable oil and eggs called for on cake mix box
1 1/2
containers Betty Crocker® Whipped fluffy white frosting
1/2
cup miniature semisweet chocolate chips
  • 1 Heat oven to 350°F (325°F for dark or nonstick pans). Make and bake cake mix as directed on box for 24 cupcakes. Cool 10 minutes; remove from pan to cooling racks. Cool completely, about 30 minutes.
  • 2 Spoon frosting into corner of resealable heavy-duty food-storage plastic bag. Cut about 1/4 inch off corner of bag. Gently push cut corner of bag into center of cupcake. Squeeze about 2 teaspoons frosting into center of each cupcake for filling, being careful not to split cupcake. Frost tops of cupcakes with remaining frosting.
  • 3 Sprinkle chocolate chips on top of each cupcake. Store loosely covered.

Expert Tips

Instead of sprinkling with chocolate chips, drizzle with melted chocolate. In small microwavable bowl, microwave 1/4 cup miniature semisweet chocolate chips and 1/2 teaspoon shortening uncovered on High just until mixture can be stirred smooth. Place in small food-storage plastic bag; cut off small corner of bag. Drizzle over frosted cupcakes.

If you have only one pan and a recipe calls for more cupcakes than your pan will make, cover and refrigerate the rest of the batter while baking the first batch. Cool the pan about 15 minutes, then bake the rest of the batter, adding 1 to 2 minutes to the bake time.

Very delicious; however, I'm with the other reviewer that said the zip lock bag did NOT work for the filling. It was a mess -- I had frosting everywhere -- except IN the cupcake!! I think a decorator bag would work better. Thank you though. The kids ate 'em up!!

These were delicious! The only thing I would change is that the recipe says to use a zip lock bag and cut the tip to fill, well a pastry bag with those metal tips would have been much better, I didn't think about it, and I do own one! They were a huge hit at work, and the choco chips on top make them look sooo classy (plus it hides my novice ways of putting frosting on). Will definitely make again.
