1 box Betty Crocker Supermoist devil's food cake mix
2 - 3oz. Philadelphia cream cheese (softened)
1/3 cup white sugar
1 egg + 3 eggs
1 1/2 cups Nestle's mini semi-sweet chocolate bits

In a mixer add cream cheese, white sugar and 1 egg--beat. Remove bowl from mixer--add 1 cup of the chocolate bits--stir until mixed, then set aside. In a mixer add cake mix, water, canola oil and 3 eggs--beat until mixed, then beat on high for 2 minutes. Place cupcake liners into muffin tins--fill each halfway with the cake batter. Drop a teaspoonful of the cream cheese mixture into the center of each cupcake batter. Bake at 350 degrees for 17-20 minutes. Cool completely. Frost as desired. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup chocolate bits over the frosting on each cupcake.
