1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4cup sour cream

Raspberry Swirl:
1/2cup raspberry preserves or jam

Preheat oven: Preheat to 325°F (163°C) and line muffin tin with liners. Place a vanilla wafer in each liner.
Prepare batter: Beat cream cheese until smooth, add sugar, eggs, vanilla, sour cream, and flour. Mix until smooth.
Fill liners: Spoon batter into liners, filling about 3/4 full.
