Dessert - Smarties party muffins by Margareta N. - Recipia

Colorful Smarties show through the soft crumb of these Smarties party muffins, made with a yogurt-based batter. I bake them in paper cases and decorate them with whipped cream and candies. I like them best with plain whipped cream, without too much food coloring. Prep: 20 minutes. Cook: 25 minutes. Rest: 30 minutes. Total time: 75 minutes. Servings: 12. About 280 kcal and 5 g protein per serving.

Ingredients

250 g flour
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
50 g Smarties
1 egg
60 g sugar
70 ml oil
200 ml yogurt
12 paper muffin cases
10 g butter
20 g Smarties
200 ml whipping cream
1 sachet whipped cream stabilizer (8 g)
2 drops food coloring
80 g Smarties

Preparation

1. Preheat the oven to 180 °C. Line a muffin tin with 12 paper cases or grease the tin with butter. 2. Mix the flour with the baking powder, baking soda and 50 g of Smarties. 3. Beat the egg with the sugar for a few minutes, then stir in the oil and yogurt. Add the flour mixture and mix until smooth. 4. Divide the batter among the cases and sprinkle 20 g of Smarties on top. Bake on the middle rack for 20-25 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. 5. Leave the muffins to cool completely, about 30 minutes. 6. Whip the cream with the stabilizer and food coloring. Decorate the muffins and sprinkle the remaining 80 g of Smarties on top.

Notes

I leave the Smarties whole so you can see the pieces in the crumb; I don’t crush them first. Choose plain yogurt, not drinkable yogurt; if it seems watery, drain it a little, or the batter will run out of the cases more easily. Cooling is the part many people rush: the whipped cream softens if the muffins are still warm. You can serve them with black tea, which goes well with the sweet cream. The muffins contain gluten, dairy and egg; after decorating, keep them in the fridge and eat them within 3 days.
