These are so surprisingly light tasting! I thought I'd taste the cream cheese and green onions more, but the flavors are very subtle. This is a definite repeat recipe! Thanks for sharing!

These are really awesome. They are more popovers than muffins though. The flavor is wonderful, and I can't wait to make them again and serve with a roast for an elegant dinner. Great recipe, thanks for sharing! :)

Totally delicious and oh so very good. I used a regular egg, but other then that, followed exactly. Grabbed some fresh green onions from the garden and the taste just burst with flavor! Will make these again, very easy to put together. Made for *Everyday is a Holiday* August 2009

This were really good. I tried to screw it up from the get-go, however. I didn't realize it was HALF the package of cream cheese until I was beating it. I was able to correct and follow through! LOL They smelled wonderful baking, and were very tasty. A unique muffin. I will make these again. I loved them. Made for Everyday's a Holiday TAG

These are delicious. I found them almost popover like in texture, very light. The flavor of the green onions are mild & they add to the appearance of the muffin. I will be making these again!
