Ingredients: 
                        
                                                | 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese |  | 1 large egg |  | 1 1/3 cups granulated sugar (separated) |  | 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt (separated) |  | 1 cup mini chocolate chip |  | 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour |  | 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa |  | 1 teaspoon baking soda |  | 1/2 cup canola oil |  | 1 teaspoon white vinegar |  | 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract |  Directions: 
                        
                            | 1. Heat oven to 350. Line mini-muffin tins with paper liners. 2. Using an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese, egg, 1/3 c of the sugar and 1/4 tsp of the salt in a large bowl until creamy.
 3. Stir in the chocolate chips.
 4. In a second large bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa, baking soda, remaining cup of sugar and 1/2 tsp salt.
 5. Add the oil, vinegar, vanilla and 1 c water and mix until fully incorporated.
 6. Spoon enough of the chocolate batter into each cup so that they are filled halfway (about 2 level tsp each).
 7. Top each of the cups with a rounded tsp of the cream cheese mixture, gently spreading it over the chocolate.
 8. Bake until the cupcakes are puffed and barely golden, 15-20 minutes.
