Description
To put it simply, these are not your average grocery store muffins. The Blueberry Cream Cheese Stuffed Donut Muffins are a multi-layered experience. Imagine a golden-brown muffin, scented with vanilla and bursting with juicy blueberries, that has been filled with a sweet cream cheese mixture. To top it off, once they emerge from the oven, they are brushed with melted butter and rolled in cinnamon sugar to replicate the signature “crunch” and flavor profile of a classic sugar donut.
