Mascarpone Chocolate Chip muffins

Marscapone Chocolate Chip muffins
The Kid is allergic to chocolate so I substitute white chocolate chips. My boys love these muffins because they are soft – the mascarpone adds a nice texture to the muffin.

ingredients:
1 (8 ounce) package mascarpone cheese, softened
1/4 cup butter, softened
1 egg
1/2 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup white sugar
3 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Prep a muffin pan with liners.

In a bowl stir together the mascarpone and the butter. Add the egg, milk and vanilla.

In a separate bowl whisk the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Add the flour to the mascarpone mixture until just combined. Don’t overmix!

Fold in the chocolate chips. If you are using white chocolate chips, use less, they are MUCH sweeter than regular chocolate. Spoon batter into prepared muffin cups filling them 3/4 full.

Bake for 15-17 minutes, depending on your oven. Let cool on a wire rack. If you can’t find mascarpone, cream cheese works as well, but I like the texture that the mascarpone gives. Try it out!

    Verdict. Very good, I’d probably make them again, but they were a little “greasier” than I anticipated.. and not as pretty as yours. I didn’t get the good muffin top action. (Other than over my pants…) 🙁

    They were AMAZING!!!!! I had left over mascarpone cheese and didnt know what to do with it, so I wanted to make muffins. Your recipe was basically the only basic Mascarpone muffin recipe I could find online so I tried it. I put lemon zest instead of chocolate chips and WOW, they were so good!! This will be my new recipe for a basic muffin, because I think anything added to it will be delicious. Thank you

    I used a whole bag of chocolate chips! Absolutely delicious. Has anyone tried blueberries? I like the comment about lemon zest. That would be lemony-cheesy goodness!
