Instructions

1

Prep the oven and pan

Heat the oven and prepare the mini muffin tin for baking.

5 min180°C
A properly preheated oven helps the muffins rise evenly.
2

Mix the dry ingredients

Combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a bowl.

5 min
Whisk well so the baking powder is evenly distributed.
3

Add the wet ingredients

Whisk in the egg, milk, melted butter, and vanilla until just combined.

Do not overmix; a few small lumps are fine and keep the muffins tender.
4

Fold in the candy pieces

Gently fold most of the candy-coated chocolate pieces into the batter, saving a few for the top.

3 min
Coat the candy lightly in flour if you want to reduce sinking.
5

Fill and bake
