FILLING
BATTER
From: waterman@... (Betsey)
Preheat the oven to 350. Melt the chocolate chips in a microwave. Set aside to cool. Cream together the cream cheese, sugar, 2 T. of the milk, and the melted chocolate until smooth and well-blended.
In a separate bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, baking soda, and baking powder. Cut in the butter, and mix well until crumbs form.
In another bowl, combine the cereal and the remaining 1 c. of milk. Let stand for about 5 minutes or until the cereal softens. Stir in the eggs and the vanilla. Pour the bran mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients and stir until moist. Lightly coat a muffin tin with cooking oil spray and scoop the batter into 12 muffin cuips, filling each halfway. Pour the chocolate mixture over the bran batter, dividing evenly among the muffin tins. Finish with another layer of batter. Bake 15 to 20 minutes or until the tops spring back when touched.
