Coffee Choco Muf-Cakes with Oozy Cream Cheese Frosting

I’m not calling them muffins. I’m not calling them cupcakes.  They are somewhere in between. 
They are muf-cakes!

COFFEE CHOCO MUF-CAKES

Ingredients:

¾ cup Toll House semisweet chocolate chips
½ cup Toll House espresso chips
¼ cup (½ stick) butter
1 cup Oakhurst Coffee Whole Milk
1 egg
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 cups flour (Gluten Free Measure for Measure Flour)
2 teaspoons baking powder
Dash of salt (omit if using salted butter)

Directions: 

1. Preheat oven to 350*F and prepare muffin pan (I used paper liners sprayed with no-stick cooking spray.)
2. Melt together butter and ¼ cup of chocolate chips either in microwave or on stovetop
3. Mix flour, baking powder, and salt.
4. In a separate bowl (I used a standmixer but could totally be done by hand) mix milk, egg, and brown sugar. Once blended, add melted butter & chocolate. Mix.
5. Add dry ingredients to wet ingredients and mix until smooth.
6. Add ½ cup semisweet chocolate chips and ½ cup espresso chips. Mix.
7. Fill prepared muffin cups almost full with batter.
8. Bake 20-25 minutes
9. Let cool before topping with Oozy Cream Cheese Frosting!

Updated: Scratched the cornstarch. Not needed.

OOZY CREAM CHEESE FROSTING

Ingredients:

8 oz block of cream cheese – softened
½ cup Oakhurst Heavy Cream
3 to 4 cups confectioners sugar
½ teaspoon vanilla

Directions:

1. Whip cream cheese and heavy cream with eclectic mixer until very smooth.
2. With mixer on low, add confectioners sugar about ¼ cup at a time until the frosting reaches your desired thickness. I used about 3 cups.
3. Use a piping bag or plastic storage bag with corner snipped to swirl frosting on each muf-cake.
4. ENJOY!
