Ingredients:
Amount | Ingredient |
---|---|
1 cup | Flour |
1/4 cup | Dark Brown Sugar |
1 1/2 tsp | Baking Powder |
1/8 tsp | Salt |
1/3 cup | Creamy Peanut Butter |
1 | Egg |
1 cup | Milk |
1/2 tsp | Vanilla Extract |
24 | Hershey’s Kisses |
Instructions:
-
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
-
Prepare your mini muffin tin by either greasing it with butter or lining with mini cupcake paper liners. Set aside.
-
In a large bowl, combine the flour, dark brown sugar, baking powder, and salt. Mix well.
-
In another bowl, mix together the creamy peanut butter and oil until well blended. Then, add the egg and continue mixing until smooth.
-
Stir in the milk and vanilla extract until everything is nicely blended.
-
Create a well in the center of your flour mixture. Pour the milk mixture into the well.
-
Gently stir everything together just until combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can result in tough muffins.
-
Spoon the batter into the prepared mini muffin cups, filling each about 2/3 full.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 10 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
-
Once baked, remove the pan from the oven and place it on a wire rack.
-
Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for about 1 minute before carefully inverting them onto the wire rack.
-
Now, place a single Hershey’s Kiss in the center of each warm muffin. This allows the Kiss to melt slightly onto the muffin.
-
Let the muffins cool for an additional 30 minutes, allowing the Kisses to set slightly.
-
Gently press down on the tops of the Kisses to ensure they adhere to the muffins.
-
For the final touch, transfer the muffins to the refrigerator and let them chill for about 1 hour. This will help the Kisses to fully set and the muffins to cool completely.
-
Once chilled, store your Peanut Butter Kiss Mini Muffins in an airtight container at room temperature. They should stay fresh and delicious for a few days, if they last that long!
Enjoy these delightful mini muffins as a sweet treat for breakfast, snack time, or any time you’re craving a bit of peanut butter heaven. 🥜✨ They are sure to become a favorite in your household, loved for their adorable appearance and irresistible flavor! 🌟
