Delicious muffins combining the rich flavor of coffee with the creamy texture of cream cheese, perfect for breakfast or as a snack.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup brewed coffee, cooled
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips, semi-sweet or dark
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Add the granulated sugar and continue to beat until well combined.
- Incorporate the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then, pour in the cooled brewed coffee and vanilla extract, mixing until the batter is smooth.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and baking powder. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the cream cheese mixture, stirring gently until just combined.
- Gently fold in the chocolate chips.
- Fill each muffin cup about two-thirds full with the batter.
- Bake for 18-22 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the muffins cool in the tin for about 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days.
- For longer storage, refrigerate or freeze wrapped muffins.
- Reheat in the microwave for a few seconds before serving.
