I don’t know about you, but I LOVE cream cheese in my baked sweets. Anything that reminds me of cheesecake just makes me happy. So today I’m excited to share these Chocolate Chip Cream Cheese Muffins with you!

Spring is here in full swing and that means picnics, barbecues and brunches. These muffins are perfect to serve for any of these occasions.

Chocolate Chip Cream Cheese Muffins
To make these muffins, you first need to combine flour, baking powder and salt. Line a muffin pan with cupcake liners of your choice. Set aside.

Cream together cream cheese, butter and sugar in a large bowl until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time and then the vanilla. Lastly, add the flour mixture and chocolate chips. Mix until moistened and fill cupcake liners 3/4 full.

The muffins bake for 20-25 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool muffins on a wire rack and devour! 😁
