Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 320°F (160°C) and line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
- In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add milk, egg yolks, and vanilla, mixing until combined.
- Sift together flour, cornstarch, and salt, then gently fold into the cream cheese mixture.
- In another bowl, whip the egg whites with a pinch of salt until soft peaks form. Gradually add sugar and continue to whip until stiff peaks form.
- Carefully fold the whipped egg whites into the batter in three additions, keeping it airy.
- Spoon the batter into the cupcake liners, filling each two-thirds full.
- Bake for 30 minutes or until golden brown, the centers should be slightly jiggly.
- Cool in the tin for 15 minutes, then remove to a wire rack. Dust with powdered sugar before serving.
