Cheesecake Stuffed Blueberry Muffin
Bran muffins beware -- beneath the sugary tops of these dump-and-stir blueberry muffins is a creamy cheesecake surprise that makes them the only muffin you'll crave. Eat them for breakfast or dessert and add a little lemon zest to the batter if you like yours with some citrus zing.
