    Bake cake about 12 to 15 minutes (cupcakes 14 to 16 minutes) or until firm when touched lightly in center. Cool cupcakes completely; freeze for a future use.

    In 2-quart saucepan, heat chocolate chips and 1 cup cream over medium heat until chocolate is melted. Remove from heat. Stir until chocolate and cream are combined. Cool 10 minutes.
