• 1 cup sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 3/4 cup hot water
• 1/2 cup vegetable oil

• 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
• 1/2 cup flour
• 1 1/2 tablespoon milk
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions:

Cookie Dough Filling:

In a small bowl mix together the flour, salt, and baking soda. In a medium bowl mix together the butter, sugars, milk and vanilla until smooth. Whisk in the dry ingredients and the mini chocolate chips. Refridgerate for 15 to 30 minutes or until cookie dough is firm. 

Chocolate Cupcakes:

Preheat oven 375º. Line a cupcake pan with 12 liners. 

In a large bowl whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking soda, and salt. Add in the water, oil, egg, and vanilla and whisk until completely combined. 

Fill each cupcake liner 1/2 to 2/3 full. Gently press a cookie dough ball of desired size into the center of each cupcake, only submerging the ball half way. 

Bake the cupcakes for 19 to 21 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the cupcake (not the cookie dough part) comes out clean with some crumbs but know moist batter. 

Cool the cupcakes completely before frosting. 

Cookie Dough Frosting:

In a bowl with an electric mixer, cream together the butter and sugars until smooth and creamy. Add in the flour, milk, and vanilla and beat on high until completely combined. 

Pipe swirls or dollops of frosting onto each cupcake and sprinkle with mini chocolate chips for a finished look!
