Ingredients
For the Cupcake Base:
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ¼ cup unsalted butter, softened
- ¼ cup milk
- 1 egg
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp baking powder
For the Cheesecake Filling:
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- ¼ cup sour cream
- ⅓ cup white chocolate, melted
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 1 egg
- ½ cup fresh blueberries
For the Topping:
- ½ cup fresh blueberries
- ¼ cup blueberry jam
- Whipped cream
Instructions
Preheat Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
Prepare Cupcake Base: Cream together softened butter and sugar until fluffy. Beat in the egg and vanilla. Gradually add flour and baking powder, alternating with milk, until just combined.
Fill Liners: Divide the base batter evenly among the liners, filling each about one-third full.
Make Cheesecake Filling: In another bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, sour cream, melted white chocolate, and sugar until smooth. Mix in the egg, then gently fold in the blueberries.
Assemble and Bake: Spoon the cheesecake filling over the cupcake base in each liner. Bake for 22-25 minutes or until set. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
Decorate: Top each cooled cupcake with whipped cream, a drizzle of blueberry jam, and a couple of fresh blueberries.
Notes
- Room Temperature Ingredients: Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature for the best texture.
- Avoid Overmixing: Mix the batter just until combined to keep the cupcakes light.
