  1. For taste, these muffins deserve 5 stars but I did have some difficulty with the recipe. I think it would have been more clear if the streusal part of the recipe were divided and not just part of the entire list and directions were given to combine remaining ingredients to make it. I used Strawberry Preserves by Melody H recipe recipe#121939 for the perserves. I did find that the perserves leaked out a bit during baking and so next time I will mix the perserves and the cream cheese together instead of adding them one at a time. I froze the remaining muffins and they freeze great. Thanks for posting this recipe!
     
  2. I agree with previous reviewer. These were fantastic except that a non cook would not know where the streusel part came from!
