Cocoa-Nana Cupcakes


Ingredients:
2 c. flour
1 c. sugar
1/3 c. baking cocoa
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. salt
2 eggs
1 1/2 c. fat-free milk
1 c. mashed bananas
1 tsp. vanilla
3 Tbs. oil

Glaze: 
4 oz. cream cheese
3 Tbs. milk
2 oz. semi-sweet chocolate chips, melted and cooled
1 tsp. vanilla 
2 c. powdered sugar
1/3 c. baking cocoa

Combine the dry ingredients in a large bowl. Add the wet ingredients and combine by hand. Line muffin tins. Fill 3/4 of the way full. Bake in a 375 degree preheated oven for around 18 minutes. Let cool. Combine the glaze ingredients in a mixer. Flip the cupcake upside-down and swirl the top of the cupcake in the glaze. Twirl as you are turning upright. Let the frosting sit for 5 minutes before serving so that it somewhat adheres to the cupcake.
