Cream Cheese and Pumpkin Muffins

 Kelly (United States) says:
I used whole wheat flour because that is what I had. I really liked the recipe. I would have added a layer of muffin mix and then added the cream cheese ball and then added more mix if I had thought about it. I prefer my filling to be in the muffin rather than swirled on top. I would also have liked a sweeter filling. Maybe something more like cream cheese icing. I also sprinkled brown sugar on the top. They turned out really delicious.
