Figgy Pudding Muffins

The world's best muffins?

Well Helen thinks so, and she has been nagging me to get this recipe on my blog, because in her opinion, and mine, these are the best muffins in the world. But beware it would seem they are the marmite of muffins - you'll either love them or hate them! Our Jack calls them 'Grit muffins', and is quite anti this recipe. So you'll have to bake them and decide for yourself which way you vote.

Mix 375g self raising flour with 220g caster suga
r in a large bowl.
In a small bowl melt 90g butter.
Add half a cup of sour cream, quarter cup of milk, and 2 large eggs to the butter. mix together.
Add the wet to the dry
Then add a cup of chopped dried figs (i've never tried using fresh ones) and mix in.
In a seperate small bowl mix to a cream - half a tub of philli (cream cheese) with a tablespoon of caster sugar.

Put a spoon of muffin mixture in the bottom of your paper cases in the muffin tin, then drop a teaspoon of cream mixture on top
, then cover up with the remaining muffin batter (as it's known in the trade!).

Bake on gas 5/6 for 20-25 mins.
