BLACK BOTTOM CUPCAKES

3 cups flour
2 cups sugar
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking soda
2 cups water
1/3 cup oil
1/3 cup baby food prunes
2 tablespoons vinegar
2 teaspoons vanilla

Mix all ingredients well. Pour into lightly oiled medium sized baking cups in prepared muffin pan. Fill about 3/4 full.

1 8-ounce package cream cheese, softened
1/3 cup sugar
1 cup mini semi-sweet chocolate chips

Mix cream cheese and sugar well. Add chocolate chips to the mixture. Drop small amounts of filing on top of each cupcake. Do not stir.

Bake at 350F for about 20 minutes.

These cupcakes freeze exceptionally well.
