Starbucks Copycat Pumpkin Cream Cheese Muffins

Pumpkin + cream cheese, what's not to love? 

I Pinned this copycat Starbucks pumpkin cream cheese muffin recipe from Crazy for Crust a while back and I'm really glad that I finally tried it out.  While my muffins didn't turn out QUITE like the ones in her photos, they were still delicious and a big hit at work.  But seriously though, why do my cream cheese blobs look like they're trying to run away from the muffins, haha.  

There are two components to these muffins, but I assure you that it's really simple to put together. I think the main thing is to be prepared, and leave the cream cheese out to soften because it'll definitely make it easier to mix that way.  Try these out if you're a fan of the Starbucks version, or even if you have never tried them and just want something pumpkin!
