Goey Caramel Muffins

There is nothing better when you need a pick me up than a warm, sweet muffin; oozing with caramel. This is what you feel when you take one big bight out of this mouth watering muffin. Although it isn't a citrus flavoured muffin, it is sweet and caramel flavoured; two things I love. The best aspect of this appetizing muffin is that it is the easiest muffin the bake in the history of cooking! All you have to do is add a jersey caramel to a normal muffin mix! It is that simple



Ingredients:
Basic muffin recipe:
  • 200g unsalted butter, softened
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup castor sugar
  • 3 eggs
  • 2 1/2 cups SR Flour, sifted
  • 1/2 cup milk
Add for Gooey Caramel muffin:
  • 24 jersey caramels
  • 3/4 cup brown sugar instead of Castor sugar (above)

Method:
Using an electric mixer, beat butter, vanilla and brown sugar in a small bowl until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time (mixture will separate), beating after each addition. Transfer mixture to a large bowl. Stir in half the flour. Stir in half the milk. Repeat with remaining flour and milk until combined. Spoon into prepared pan. For muffins, spoon 2 tblsp of mixture per patty case. For cup-cake, spoon 1 tblsp of mixture per patty case. Push one jersey caramel into the centre of each muffin. Bake at 160'C fan-forced for 15-17 minutes. Stand cakes in pans for 2 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool. Store in air tight container. Serve warm with icing sugar dusted over the top (optional).
