Tiramisu Cupcakes

My in-laws inspired me to put together this recipe.  If you even mention the word around them, they perk up.  What?  Tiramisu?  Where??  Right here!

This cupcake is rich, deliciously combining the flavors of coffee and cream cheese…and of course, garnished wish some dark chocolate.

Cream together eggs, sugar and cream cheese using electric mixer at medium speed until well blended.   Add remainder of ingredients and beat well until smooth, about 4 minutes.  Distribute into lined muffin pan using ice cream scoop and bake at 350 degrees for about 22 minutes.  Cool completely before icing.
