Mini Tuxedo Cupcake Bites

Mini Tuxedo Cupcake Bites

These Mini Tuxedo Cupcake Bites are a treat! The bottom of the cupcake is a dense and moist chocolate cake. The top of the cupcake is the most delicious cream cheese and chocolate chip topping. Store these little beauties in the refrigerator for a nice sweet bite, or put these on a holiday tray as gifts!


Mini Tuxedo Cupcake Bites

When I was a kid, one of our neighbors would bring us a Christmas tray filled with homemade goodies. Chocolate chip cookies, chocolate fudge and these delicious mini chocolate cupcakes filled with cream cheese and chocolate chips. These Mini Tuxedo Cupcake Bites remind me of those delicious goodies.

The best way to eat these Mini Tuxedo Cupcake Bites are straight out of the fridge! They have such a dense and rich texture with the moist cake and the cream cheese and chocolate chips on top. They are not your traditional mini cupcakes, but they are definitely worth making and enjoying and/or giving as gifts!
