ingredients
- 1 3⁄4 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon pumpkin spice
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
- 1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin (pure pumpkin puree)
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1⁄2 cup packed brown sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1⁄2 cup vegetable oil
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 8 ounces cream cheese
- 1⁄4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 large egg yolk
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
directions
- Preheat oven to 375°F Place paper baking cups into muffin pan. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, whisk flour, pumpkin spice, baking soda and salt until well combined. Set aside.
- In large bowl, whisk together pumpkin, sugar and brown sugar.
- Beat in eggs, vegetable oil and vanilla extract. Slowly whisk in the flour mixture, until there are no lumps. Fill muffin tins 3/4 full.
- In a medium bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Add in sugar, egg yolk and vanilla extract and beat until well combined.
- Fill prepared muffin cups.
- Top each muffin with about 1 tablespoon of cream cheese mixture and use a toothpick to swirl it into the batter. This will not look smooth, but it will bake up much prettier. (You can see exactly how I did this in the video at the top of the page.).
- Bake muffins for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- I liked these best at room temperature or even slightly chilled.

Well I tried them but my mistake, I filled the muffin tins to high The cream cheese mixture never melted into the muffin even though I did mix it with a toothpick. Not pretty but tasted good. I'm giving this a 4 star rating for taste, can't comment honestly on appearance because I goofed!1Replies 1
