Instructions
Strawberry Muffins:
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line 18 muffin tins with cupcake liners. Set aside.
- Sift together 2 cups of the flour, baking powder and salt in a mixing bowl, set aside.
- In a small bowl, toss together the remaining 2 tablespoons of flour with the chopped strawberries. Set aside.
- In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment or a large mixing bowl with an electric mixer, blend melted butter, sugar, milk, egg and vanilla.
- Slowly add the dry ingredients to the batter. Do not over mix. Stop when it is combined, but there are still small lumps.
- Fold in the strawberries by hand. The batter will marbleize or turn blue if using frozen strawberries.
Cheesecake Filling:
- In a medium mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the cream cheese until smooth.
- Add the egg and vanilla, mix. Add the sugar and flour, mix well for 2-3 minutes. Set aside.
Streusel Topping:
- Use a cheese grater and grate cold butter into a bowl. Cut in the brown sugar, sugar, flour and salt.
Assemble the Muffins:
- Spoon 1 heaping tablespoon of muffin batter in each lined muffin tin. Add a little less than 1 tablespoon cheesecake mixture to each. Top with more muffin batter until approximately 2/3 full. Sprinkle the tops evenly with streusel mixture, pressing it ever so gently down to make it stick.
- Bake the muffins for 25 minutes or until they are lightly browned. Times may vary based on oven and how much you filled those cups (I know a few of you took some chances and filled them to the brim, didn't you??). Muffin tops will spring back to the touch.
- Remove from the oven and allow to cool.
