Cappucino Muffins with Espresso Spread

Espresso spread:
4 oz. cream cheese, cubed
1 tbsp. sugar
1/2 tsp. instant coffee granules
1/2 tsp. vanilla
1/4 c. mini chocolate chips

Muffins:
2 c. flour
3/4 c. sugar
2 1/2 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp. salt
1 c. milk
2 tbsp. instant coffee granules
1/2 c. butter or margarine, melted
1 egg, beaten
1 tsp. vanilla
3/4 c. mini chocolate chips

In a blender or food processor, combine the spread ingredients; cover and process until well-blended. Cover and refrigerate until serving.

In a bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, cinnamon, and salt. In another bowl, stir milk and coffee granules until coffee is dissolved. Add butter, egg, and vanilla; mix well. Stir into dry ingredients just until moistened. Fold in chocolate chips.

Fill greased or paper-lined muffin cups two-thirds full. Bake at 375 degrees for 17-20 minutes or till muffins test done. Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pan to wire rack. Serve with espresso spread.
