List of Ingredients





18 1/4 oz unprepared white cake mix
1 cup water
1/3 cup unsweetened applesauce
3 large egg(s)
1 cup pudding, chocolate, prepared with skim milk
1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
1/2 cup fat-free cream cheese




Recipe



Preheat oven to 350°F. Line 48 mini muffin cups with paper liners.

To make cupcakes, beat together cake mix, water, applesauce and eggs at low speed for 30 seconds; beat on medium speed for 2 minutes more. Spoon batter into lined cupcake cups.

Bake cupcakes for 5 minutes. Drop a teaspoon of pudding into the centre of each cupcake. Bake for 13 minutes more and cool for at least 30 minutes.

To make icing, create a double boiler: Boil water in a small saucepan and then reduce heat to simmer. Put chocolate chips in a small metal bowl and set bowl over simmering water; stir until chocolate melts. Remove from heat and stir in cream cheese; blend until smooth.

Top each cooled cupcake with 1 teaspoon of icing. Yields 1 cupcake per serving
