Strawberry Cream Muffins

2 cups flour
1 cup granulated sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
4 tablespoons butter, melted
1/4 cup vegetable oil
3/4 cup milk
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 pint strawberries
8 ounces cream cheese

Heat oven to 350 degrees F.

Sift together all the dry ingredients. Make a well in the center. Blend in remaining ingredients except strawberries and cream cheese. Spoon batter into a wax paper-lined 12-unit muffin pan. Place 1 or 2 berries in the center of the batter in each muffin mold.

Whip the cream cheese and place in a small pastry bag with a number 4 tip. Squeeze about 1 tablespoon of cream cheese into and on top of strawberries. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes.

Yields 12 (2 to 4 ounce) muffins or 6 (6 to 8 ounce) muffins.
