Ingredients

• 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 0.75 cups Granulated sugar
• 2 teaspoons Baking powder
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 1 Egg
• 0.5 cups Whole milk
• 0.25 cups Vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 1 cup Fresh raspberries
• 8 ounces Cream cheese (softened)
• 0.25 cups Confectioners' sugar
• 1 Egg yolk
• 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract (for cheesecake filling)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Stir to mix well.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract until fully combined.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just mixed (do not overmix).

Step 5

Fold in the fresh raspberries carefully to avoid breaking them apart.

Step 6

In another bowl, prepare the cheesecake filling by beating the cream cheese and confectioners' sugar together until smooth.

Step 7

Add the egg yolk and vanilla extract (for the cheesecake filling) to the cream cheese mixture and beat again until creamy and fully combined.

Step 8

Spoon about a tablespoon of the muffin batter into each muffin liner, spreading it to cover the base. Add a small scoop (about 1 teaspoon) of the cheesecake filling on top.

Step 9

Cover the cheesecake filling with more muffin batter, ensuring each liner is filled almost to the top. If desired, add a few more raspberry pieces on top for decoration.

Step 10

Bake the muffins in the preheated oven for about 20-22 minutes, or until the tops are lightly golden and a toothpick inserted into the muffin portion (not the cheesecake filling) comes out clean.

Step 11

Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 12

Serve warm or at room temperature, and store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
