oh dear sorry didnt like this, think an instruction step was left out, I Assumed that you half fill the muffintins with batter, put the creamcheese mixture in and top up with remaining batter...they tasted fine but didnt 'set' properly..maybe creamcheese mixture should have been mixed in rather than a filling? Well, they did get eaten! but not my best, sorry.
