Yield: 12 MUFFINS

Prep time: 30 MINUTES

Cook time: 15 MINUTES

Total time: 3 HOURS, 45 MINUTES

INGREDIENTS:

For the Speculoos Chips:

• ½ cup Speculoos butter

For the Muffins:

• 1 and 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon fine salt
• ¼ cup canola oil
• 1 large egg
• ½ cup milk
• frozen Speculoos chips

DIRECTIONS:

For the Speculoos Butter Chips:

1. Using a piping bag or a plastic zip-top bag, pipe small dots of Speculoos onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or Silpat.
2. Continue until you have used the entire 1/2 cup of Speculoos. Put in freezer and freeze for 24 hours. (You can probably get by with ~2 hours if need be).

For the Muffins:

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Line 12 muffin tins with paper liners. Stir dry ingredients in a large bowl. Add in milk, oil and egg and stir until just blended.
2. Working very quickly, scrape Speculoos chips off of pan and into bowl. Fold into the batter, stirring gently but quickly and only until just combined.
3. Fill muffin tins ~2/3 full and bake at 400 degrees F for 15-20 minutes or until no impression is left when you press the top lightly.
