Raspberry-Cream Cheese Muffins

"Serve these muffins for breakfast and your family will be begging for more. We love the combination of cream cheese and tart raspberries. GOOD TO KNOW: These sweets have only two-thirds the fat of traditional muffins. Walnuts are full of heart-healthy fats, and the antioxidants in raspberries can prevent heart disease and certain cancers, as well as keep your eyes, mind, and immune system sharp."

  1. I made these a little different, but they still had pretty much the same outcome... I made these in mini-muffin form and rather than folding in the raspberries I scooped the batter into the muffin cups and pressed a raspberry into the middle. I also sprinkled a little crystalized sugar on top for garnish. I ate a muffin (around the raspberry since I don't like them) and the muffin was very moist and tender. I think I will make these again but add blueberries or strawberries (though DH loved the raspberry). Made for Spring PAC 2013.
