Notes

  1. Use butter and cream cheese at room temperature for better results.
  2. Fill the muffin cases right to the top for perfect muffin top.
  3. Baking at higher temperature are helps in rising.
  4. I used normal sugar for sprinkling on top. You can use demerrara sugar or granulated sugar as well.
  5. You can reduce the sugar amount to ½ cup if you want it less sweet.
  6. Addition of lemon zest and orange zest can be added for more flavour.
