Ingredients:
- For the Muffins:
- 1 cup of milk
- 100 g of butter (82% fat content), melted and cooled
- 1 medium egg
- A pinch of salt
- ¾ cup of sugar
- 2 cups of all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons of baking powder
- Approximately 150 g of blueberries
- For the Streusel Topping:
- 50 g of all-purpose flour
- 50 g of sugar
- 40 g of butter (82% fat content), cold
- For the Cream Filling:
- 200 g of creamy sandwich cheese
- 20 g of milk (2% fat)
- 20 g of powdered sugar
- Start by preparing the muffin batter. In a mixing bowl, combine the milk and warm melted butter. Add the egg, sugar, and a pinch of salt, and mix well. Gradually add the flour and baking powder, mixing until just combined. Gently fold in the blueberries.
- Divide the batter among 10 muffin cups lined with cupcake liners.
- For the streusel, combine the flour, sugar, and cold butter in a small bowl, rubbing together with your fingers until the mixture forms coarse crumbs. Sprinkle this over the batter in the muffin cups.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (356°F) for 25 minutes or until the tops are golden and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the muffins to cool. Meanwhile, prepare the cream filling by blending the creamy cheese, milk, and powdered sugar until smooth.
- Once the muffins are cooled, inject or cut a small hole and fill each with the cream cheese mixture.
