1. Pumpkin Muffins: Preheat your oven to 350 Place your oven rack in the middle of your oven. Butter or spray each muffin cup with a non-stick vegetable spray
2. Cream Cheese Filling: In your electric mixer, or with a hand mixer, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add the sugar, egg, and vanilla extract and beat until creamy and smooth. Set aside while you make the muffin batter.
3. Pumpkin Muffins: In the bowl of your electric mixer, or with a hand mixer, beat to combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, ground spices, and salt. Add the butter, eggs, vanilla extract, and pumpkin puree. Beat the wet and dry ingredients together at medium speed until the batter is smooth and satiny, about 30-60 seconds. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed.
4. Fill the muffin cups evenly (about 2/3 full) with the batter using two spoons or an ice cream scoop. Make a well in the center of the batter of each muffin and then spoon a few tablespoons of the cream cheese filling into the well.
5. Place in the oven and bake for about 18 - 20 minutes, or until the cream cheese filling has set and the pumpkin feels springy to the touch (a toothpick inserted into the pumpkin part of the muffin will come out clean.) Place on a wire rack to cool.

These pumpkin cream cheese muffins get a kick of flavor from pumpkin pie spice mix. The store-bought spice mix is usually a combination of cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, all-spice, and ginger. Alternatively, you could simply pick one spice to shine- such as cinnamon. Pumpkin and cream cheese were meant to be together…and these amazingly delicious pumpkin cream cheese muffins prove it! Light and fluffy, the pumpkin muffin is perfection, and that delightful cream cheese center is like the icing on the cake.
