Carrot Cake Cupcakes with Cheesecake Filling

Cheesecake Filling:

4 ounces softened cream cheese
1 egg yolk
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla

Start by preheating your oven to 350°. Prepare the boxed cake following the directions on the box.

Now set aside the the mixed carrot cake and get ready to make the cheesecake filling. In a mixing bowl combine the cream cheese, egg yolk, sugar and vanilla. Cream together until smooth.

Now we can start making these yummy things. Place the cupcake liners in your pan and fill each one ½ way full with prepared carrot cake mixture.

Take a spoon and drop about a teaspoon full of the cheesecake filling onto the top of each cupcake.

Bake for about 15 min.  Cool and frost (I used can frosting to save time)
