Brunch Cream Cheese Muffins




List of Ingredients



• 1 (4 oz) pkg cream cheese, softened
  
• 1/4 cup white sugar
  
• 1/2 tsp grated lemon peel
  
• 1/8 tsp vanilla extract
  
• 2 eggs
  
• 3/4 cup milk
  
• 1/2 cup vegetable oil
  
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
  
• 1/3 cup white sugar
  
• 3 tsp baking powder
  
• 1/2 tsp salt
  
• powdered sugar, sifted
  






Instructions



1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Oil bottoms only of medium muffin tins.
   
2. Mix together cream cheese, 1/4 cup white sugar, lemon peel, vanilla, and 1 egg with an electric mixer. Set filling aside.
   
3. In a large bowl, mix together flour, 1/3 cup white sugar, baking powder, and salt until well blended. Beat remaining egg, and stir in milk and oil; pour into flour mixture, and stir until moistened. Fill muffin cups about 1/2 full. Spoon 1 tsp filling onto batter. Top with batter to 3/4 full.
   
4. Bake 30 to 35 minutes. Don't brown these; muffins should be light in color. Roll while still hot in sifted confectioners' sugar.
