These cheddar cheese flavored muffins are fun and easy to make. The hidden surprise is a cube of cream cheese and a teaspoon of apricot or raspberry jam. Delicious! Ingredients:
2 t. sugar |
2 t. melted butter |
2 t. canola oil |
1 egg |
1 c. milk |
2 c. flour |
1 t. baking powder |
1/4 t. garlic salt |
a fresh grinding of white pepper |
1 c. grated sharp cheddar cheese |
8 ounces cream cheese, cut into 12 cubes |
1/2 c. apricot or raspberry jam |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
2. In a mixing bowl, thoroughly blend the sugar, butter and oil. Add the egg and beat the mixture until fluffy and light-colored. Sift the dry ingredients together and add them to the mixing bowl alternately with the milk. Fold in the grated cheddar.
3. Butter a muffin tin, or spray it with oil, and half-fill each of the muffin cups with batter. Press a cube of cream cheese into each, and top with a spoonful of apricot jam. Cover with the remaining batter so no jam or cream cheese is visible. Bake for 12-15 minutes at 400 degrees until the top bounces back when you press your finger on the surface.
