Banana Cream Cheese Muffins

I saw this recipe from Kenneth Goh and was very curious about how good the combination of banana and cream cheese, so I decided to give it a try. As I was following the recipe instructions, I realised brown sugar and melted butter were not mentioned. So I took the initiative to add them after adding milk, followed by flour mixture and luckily the muffins turned out soft and moist (quite unlike muffins texture). Everyone in the family love this texture so did my colleagues when I brought for them the following day. Thanks to Kenneth for the excellent recipe (even though I did not follow accordingly to his steps).
