I wanted to make something a little different this morning so I came up with my funny concoction. I kept reading all of these recipes for orange or lemon cranberry muffins and then I stumbled on one with cream cheese and all I could think was put them together so I came up with these delicious muffins!
First, you will need to get softened butter and cream cheese. I did these on spur of the moment so I threw them into the microwave for 20 seconds. While they were doing their thing I turned on my oven to 350 degrees.
Next, put them in your mixer and add the eggs, vanilla, and sugar. Whip it, Whip it reeeeealll good.
I like to put in the salt, baking powder, and flour in next. Then zest your lemon in and add your dried cranberries.
I used a smaller lemon so it probably only had half a tsp. of lemon zest.
The batter comes out like this! It smells so good already...
Fill up your muffin cups! 3/4 full. In this picture I'm realizing how well loved my muffin pan looks. But
I love ceramic muffin pans, like these. Place in the muffin in the oven for about 15 minutes.
