INGREDIENTS:

  • 100 grams Butter or margarine (room temperature)

  • 2 pieces Eggs (large)

  • 1 cup All-purpose flour

  • 1 teaspoon Baking powder

  • 1 can (300 ml) Condensed milk

  • 1 bar (185 grams) Cheese (grated)


DIRECTIONS:

Step 1: Preheat the Oven

  • Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) for about 15 minutes to ensure it's hot enough for baking.


Step 2: Prepare the Batter

  • In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter with a spatula or wooden spoon until smooth.

  • Add the eggs and mix until thoroughly combined. You can also use a hand mixer or stand mixer for this step to make it easier.


Step 3: Combine Dry Ingredients

  • In the same  bowl, sift together the flour and baking powder and mix until combined.


Step 4: Add Condensed Milk

  • Pour in the condensed milk and continue mixing until the batter is smooth and all ingredients are well incorporated.


Step 5: Mix in the Cheese

  • Gently fold in ¾ of the grated cheese, reserving the remaining ¼ for topping. Stir until the cheese is evenly distributed throughout the batter.


Step 6: Fill the Muffin Cups

  • Line a muffin pan with cupcake liners. Fill each liner about ¾ full with the batter. This ensures the muffins have enough room to rise without overflowing.


Step 7: Top with Cheese

  • Sprinkle the remaining grated cheese on top of each muffin.


Step 8: Bake and Cool the Muffins

  • Place the muffin pan in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean and the tops are golden brown.

  • Allow the muffins to cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.


TIPS:

  • Room Temperature Ingredients: Make sure your butter and eggs are at room temperature for easier mixing and better texture.

  • Use a Cheese Grater: For best results, use a fine grater to grate the cheese, ensuring it melts evenly into the batter.

  • Storage: Store the muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or refrigerate for longer freshness.

  • Add-ons: You can add herbs like chopped chives or parsley for extra flavor or a bit of garlic powder for a savory twist.


Serve & Enjoy! 💖
