Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 0.75 cups Granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Baking soda
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 large Egg
- 0.5 cups Kahlua (coffee liqueur)
- 0.5 cups Whole milk
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cups Sour cream
- 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease lightly with butter or non-stick spray.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until evenly combined.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the melted butter, egg, Kahlua, milk, vanilla extract, and sour cream until smooth.
Gradually fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients using a spatula or wooden spoon. Mix until just combined; be careful not to overmix, as this can make the muffins dense.
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about 3/4 full.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18–20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean.
Remove the muffin tin from the oven and allow the muffins to cool for 5 minutes in the tin before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Optional: Once the muffins are cooled, lightly dust the tops with powdered sugar for a touch of sweetness and decorative finish.
Serve and enjoy your decadent Kahlua and Cream Muffins with coffee or as a standalone treat!
