Hi,
I would like to make some Red Velvet cupcakes. What kind of frosting and filling would I use. I would like to fill the cupcakes with a filling. Would I use the same for both filling and frosting? Can I freeze unfrosted cupcakes with filling inside. Any help appreciated, thank you.

RE: RECIPE: What kind of creme for creme filled cupcakes?
You could use the filling in this recipe with or without the chocolate chips. Whether it can be frozen I don't know: KILLER CUPCAKES (makes 20-22) Cupcakes: 4 squares (4 oz) semisweet chocolate 1 tsp vanilla 2 sticks butter 4 eggs 1 1/2 cups sugar 1 cup flour
Preheat oven to 350°. Line standard muffin tins w/paper cupcake liners. In the top part of a double boiler over simmering water, melt the chocolate w/the vanilla & butter. In a large bowl, beat the eggs until thick & add the sugar. Beat in the flour. Fold in the butter-chocolate mixture. Spoon into the prepared tins, filling the cups 2/3 full.
Filling: 8 oz cream cheese, softened 1/4 cup sugar 1 egg, beaten Dash of salt 3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips
Mix the cream cheese, sugar, egg & salt until just blended. Stir in the chocolate chips. Drop a rounded teaspoon of filling onto the top of each cupcake. Bake 30 minutes.~~

There's a White Chocolate Cream Cheese Frosting below. Judging by the recipe, these can be frozen & thawed in the refrigerator. I'd love to hear how yours turn out.
