Can you believe that it’s the last week of August?

I know I say this all the time, but where did the summer go?

We’re now approaching Labor Day weekend (and my birthday!), and that signals the unofficial end of summer. Even though it’s still blazing hot here and will probably be for the next month or so, summer is coming to an end, at least in my mind.

I usually look forward to Labor Day weekend for a few reasons. My birthday usually falls on or right before this time, it’s a three day weekend, and it usually means that the hubster and I have some fun things planned. I like to look at it as the perfect excuse to celebrate the summer and the beginning of the fall.

After all, fall is my favorite season, and I’m looking forward to all of the apples and pumpkins galore!

But, since it is the last unofficial weekend of summer, it’s also the perfect time to do some entertaining. You know, all of those parties and barbecues that happen.

These Blueberry Cheesecake Muffins make a delicious breakfast or easy dessert. Filled with tangy blueberries, a sweet cheesecake filling and topped with a buttery streusel, these muffins will quickly become everyone's favorite treat!

And with that in mind, I decided to whip up a delicious dessert with the help of Krusteaz Wild Blueberry Muffin Mix. You all know how much I adore Krusteaz (remember this White Chocolate Raspberry Crumble, those Peanut Butter and Jelly Baked Pancakes, and these Baked Pumpkin Streusel Donuts?) Not only is it a brand that I know and trust, but you all seem to love it, too.

I don’t know what’s better, the creamy cheesecake filling, the sweet muffin batter, or that buttery, crumbly streusel on top. Let’s just call it even and make this the most tasty Blueberry Cheesecake Muffin ever. Sound good?

Like most of my recipes, these Blueberry Cheesecake Muffins are a breeze to whip up. In less than an hour, these fluffy and delicious cuties will be ready to devour. And trust me, these are oh-so good!

I gave the hubster a few of these to take to his work and they received rave reviews! In fact, his co-workers are wanting more of these, and soon. Good things these babies are simple to make.

So if you’re looking for that decadent but easy sweet treat to serve at your Labor Day get-together, these Blueberry Cheesecake Muffins are calling your name!

Keyword blueberry muffin recipe, cheesecake muffin recipe
Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 24 minutes
Total Time 39 minutes
Servings 12 muffins

Ingredients

Streusel Topping

  • ½ cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon white sugar
  • 1½ teaspoons cinnamon
  • ¼ cup unsalted butter melted
  • ⅔ cup all-purpose flour

Cheesecake Filling

  • 6 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 3 tablespoons white sugar
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla bean paste or vanilla extract

Muffin batter

  • 1 package Krusteaz Wild Blueberry Muffin Mix
  • ⅔ cup water
  • ⅓ cup vegetable oil
  • 2 eggs

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Lightly spray a 12-count muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray or line with paper liners. Set aside.
  • To prepare the crumb topping, add brown sugar, white sugar, cinnamon, melted butter, and flour to a medium bowl. Stir to thoroughly combine. Set aside.
  • To prepare cheesecake filling, in a medium bowl, beat cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract with an electric hand mixer until light and fluffy, about 1-2 minutes. Set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, stir Krusteaz Wild muffin mix, water, vegetable oil, and eggs until just moistened. Gently fold in blueberries.
  • Spoon a small amount of batter into each muffin tin, just enough so that it covers the bottom of the liner. Then, take about a tablespoon of cream cheese filling and spread on top of muffin batter. Spoon the remaining muffin batter into each tin, filling about 2/3 full.
  • Sprinkle prepared streusel over the tops of each muffin tin.
  • Bake 24-28 minutes, or until muffins are golden brown. Remove from oven and let cool for 10 minutes, then move to a wire rack to cool completely.
