Mini M&M's & Kisses Muffin

These cake-like muffins made with buttermilk are soft and moist. I replaced mini M&M's & Kisses chocolate instead of chocolate chips & I omitted sultanas cuz my girls do not like it....

Ingredients:
90g unsalted butter

140g sugar

1 egg

190g all-purpose flour (I used plain flour)

1½ tsp baking powder

½ tsp baking soda

½ tsp salt

½ cup buttermilk

1½ tsp vanilla extract

2 tbsp sultanas (optional)

Mini M&M's & Kisses Chocolate to sprinkle on top

Ingredients:

1. Preheat an oven to 180 deg C.
2. Combine butter & sugar, beat on medium speed until light & fluffy.  Add egg & beat well until pale & smooth.
3. Another bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt & sultanas (I omit).
4. Add to the butter mixture, alternating with the buttermilk & vanilla.  Stir until just evenly moistened.   The batter will be slightly lumpy.
5. Spoon the batter into the prepared muffin cups, filled each ¾ full.  Sprinkle top with mini M&M & kisses chocolate.
6. Bake until the muffins are golden for 15-20 minutes.   Transfer the muffin to a wire rack & let cool.

Note:

To make your own buttermilk; add 1-½ tsp lemon juice or vinegar to 125ml milk.  Let it stand for 15-30 minutes.
