Berry Cream Cheese Muffins
We are still trying to eat more food made from scratch. Haven't been perfect (that's for sure)...but still trying and I think I'm addicted to baking now. Here is one of my favorite recipes...so easy...and the cream cheese makes these so yum! Raspberry (or blueberry...I was in a blueberry mood the day I took this pic!) - Cream Cheese Muffins.
