I tried a pumpkin muffin that has cream cheese in the center, like Twinkie filling, what would I have to do to make it
creamy enough to inject it into a muffin? I got ideas of how to get the filling in but don't what you would do to make
the cream cheese creamy. I don't want to bake it into it. Hope that makes sense, thanks everyone, Carol

[/quote:baffed6b55] Probably any cream cheese icing recipe (less the sugar, or reduce the sugar if you do want it a
little sweet) would work. Or just couple of tablespoons of milk beat in the cream cheese should make it loose enough to
pipe through an icing piper. Tara

Just cream cheese or is it mixed with something? If it is just cream cheese, I'd hit it with the mixer on high speed
to whip quite a bit of air into it which should make it smooth and creamy. An alternative would be to start with the
spreadable cream cheese which is quite a bit smoother. Carol In WI wrote: [quote:193750fd7d]I tried a pumpkin muffin

thanks everyone, Carol [/quote:dd8be1d143] Why not cut the muffin in half and spread the cream cheese onto each half.

everyone, Carol [/quote:9882b0a47d] I'd suggest adding just a bit of sugar, vanilla, and milk -- beat the heck out of
it -- then inject into the muffin. A couple of suggestions on the injecting -- make an "x" in the top of the
muffin before you inject, make sure your "injecting cream" doesn't have air pockets (that might cause a
blowout). EG

thanks everyone, Carol [/quote:0819878d3e] You've gotten a number of good suggestions. If none of them
"feel" right to you, I can ask DD who is a professional chef and specializes in pastries of all kinds.
She's had to bake all sorts of things that had some sort of filling injected into them. CiaoMeow >^;;^< PAX,

Carol Carol, I've been a baking fiend for many years, and I discovered a recipe[/quote:c6113e57bf] for cream cheese
filled muffins years ago on a box of brownie mix. I've used the cream cheese filling portion of the recipe ever since:
8 ounce block cream cheese, softened to room temp 2 egg yolks 1 cup confectioner's sugar 1/2 teaspoon vanilla With your
mixer, blend the softened cream cheese with the egg yolks, and beat in the confectioner's sugar and vanilla until the
mixture is well blended. Spoon approx. one teaspoon of the mixture on the top of each portion of muffin batter in the
muffin pan, and bake according to recipe directions. The cream cheese mixture will sink slightly as the muffin batter
rises around it. Don't be alarmed when you remove the muffins from the oven if you see the cream cheese peeking from
the center of each muffin. It certainly won't have a negative effect on the taste of your glorious muffins. I've
always frosted my muffins to conceal the cream cheese, and the frosting is the super decadent touch to muffins which
are already decadent by the addition of the cream cheese filling. Sit back and enjoy! Betty in Georgia
