I found this recipe on pinterest and just had to try it! Reese and I really did love them. I have never had a muffin melt in my mouth before, this is an amazing recipe. I must credit this to Velvet Lava Cafe blog though. Pictured above is how they turned out and my new monogrammed apron! Recipe is below and thanks for checking this out. Xo, Merrit
1/3 c. butter, melted(unsalted)
1/2 c. sugar
1 egg (preferably room temperature)
1 1/2 c. all purpose flour
1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. nutmeg
1/2 c. milk
Topping (option: cut topping in half*)
1/2 c. sugar
1/2 c. butter, melted
1 tsp. cinnamon
Preheat oven to 350F.
In
a medium-large bowl, sift together all dry ingredients. Add wet
ingredients and stir until combined, but still a bit lumpy. Don't
overmix. Scoop batter into muffin tins that have sprayed with cooking
spray. Using a large ice cream scoop, I got 8 medium-large muffins out
of this batter; I think you could get 10-12 muffins by distributing the
batter a little less generously. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until they
just start to turn a bit golden at the edges.
For the topping,
mix sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Place melted butter in another
small bowl. Dip the warm muffins in melted butter (you can dip just the top, but it's even tastier to dip the whole muffin!), then dip/roll the muffin in cinnamon sugar. *May
have left-over topping; the extra topping can be used for dipping,
while eating the muffins (oh my). Another option is to cut the topping
ingredients in half. CONSUME, ENJOY, GO CRAZY!
