Muffins are great. Muffins with a secret cheesecake core? Unforgettable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
These Blueberry Cheesecake Muffins are soft, buttery, and packed with juicy blueberries. But the real magic is the creamy, tangy cheesecake filling hiding inside. Topped with crunchy streusel and a drizzle of glaze. One bowl. No mixer required. Let’s bake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step-by-Step Instructions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Step 1: Prep & Preheat<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n
Preheat oven to 375\u00b0F (190\u00b0C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
Step 2: Make the Streusel<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n
Mix flour and brown sugar. Cut in cold butter with a fork until crumbly. Set aside.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
Step 3: Make Cheesecake Filling<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n
Beat cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla until smooth. Set aside.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

Top with remaining batter until liners are \u00be full.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Sprinkle streusel generously over each muffin.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
Step 6: Bake & Cool<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n
Bake for 18\u201320 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean (except for the gooey center).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. Refrigerate for up to 6 days (bring to room temp before eating). Freeze without glaze for up to 3 months.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
