Step 4. Mix the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients.
Step 5. Use a soup spoon to fill each cupcake well with batter and smooth the tops with your finger.
Step 6. Bake for 22-24 minutes until the top is firm and a toothpick in the middle comes out clean.
Step 7. Cool the cupcakes in the pan for 1 hour.
Step 8. In a large bowl, cream together cream cheese, butter, and vanilla with an electric mixer.
Step 9. Whip in powdered sweetener in 1/2 cup measures until light and fluffy.
