It’s somehow an acceptable breakfast food. Like, if you ask what’s for breakfast and I’m all, “oh just a slice of cake”, you’re probably thinking, “dude, what a fatty”. But if I respond, “oh just a doughnut”, well you might still think, “what a fatty”, but somehow it’s not quite as shocking. And really doughnuts are way worse..because it’s like deep fried cake. With frosting. So today I have solved this major dilemma. With muffins…because no one looks twice at you when you’re having a muffin for breakfast.
ANNND this here breakfast food is a cake, disguised as a doughnut disguised as a muffin… Triple agent breakfast food. That’s serious espionage. The inspiration for this came from the most delicious Dunkin’ Donut on the planet. The Vanilla Creme. That donut is my honey. My boo. My soul mate. But since I am allergic to preparing food with yeast (not really) and also deep frying (again, not really) I decided to make the cheater’s version. What ended up happening was completely delightful. Sometimes laziness pays off. The steps are easy. Let’s begin.
How to Make These Tasty Homemade Muffins
I started by using this vanilla muffin recipe. You combine pretty much all your ingredients, except the milk, melted butter and vanilla. It will kind of look like coarse sand… Then add your wet stuff… Fill your liners up about 2/3 full… And bake them until they spring back to the touch. You’ll have to let them cool for a bit before you fill them… Using a pasty bag or a zip-top bag and a large piping tip plunge the tip directly into the muffin and squeeze the filling in. You’ll see your muffin bulge a little when it’s full… Mine cracked a little because I am a classic over-filler. But I’m not losing any sleep over that little “problem”. Then dust them with powdered sugar. I left mine in the baking tin, but you totally don’t have to. See? Then get to serving… And of course eating.
