Raspberry Cream Cheese Muffins! Delicious muffins made with cream cheese, loaded with fresh raspberries and drizzled with a smooth cream cheese glaze.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again…we really like muffins at my house. Not just for breakfast, but, for snacking and dessert. These delights are no exception!
Your List of Ingredients:
- Biscuit mix ( ex: Bisquick/Jiffy Mix)
- Butter
- Sugar: both white and brown
- Cream cheese
- Milk
- Raspberries
- Powdered sugar
Ah! I don’t have any biscuit mix! What do I do? Don’t worry, it can easily be made homemade.
Do I have to use raspberries? Nope. Any berry will work, including a mixture of your favorite blend of mixed berries.
Can I use frozen raspberries? Yes. However, you will need to rinse them, then, let them dry before adding them to your batter. This will prevent your batter from turning pink.
No eggs? Really? No, you do not need eggs for these muffins.
Can I use any substitutions? Yes! Coconut palm sugar can be used in place of brown sugar for the topping. Plus, almond milk can be used for the batter, in place of regular dairy milk.
A few things to remember:
Make sure your cream is softened before using. This will make your batter, muffins and glaze much tastier and easier to work with.
Butter: For the muffin batter, it should be melted. For the muffin topping, it should be cold.
Don’t over mix your batter. Just make sure it’s fully mixed and no dry spots are left before adding the raspberries.

Erin these sound absolutely delicious! I would never have put cream cheese in a sweet muffin – thanks for the inspiration! I have loads of fresh raspberries in the garden – what a great idea to make them into something instead of freezing the excess ! Thanks for linking up and sharing at Fiesta Friday!

So glad you liked them Jan! Thanks for the feedback!
