Description

These are my favorite muffins to serve with a cup of coffee or a tall glass of cold milk. Not only are they great for breakfast, they make a tasty dessert or midnight snack. I get lots of recipe requests whenever I serve them. The espresso spread is also super on a bagel. —Janice Schulz, Racine, Wisconsin

Ive been making this muffin for years. I actually got a proposal out of it. ( true humor- my friend is a coffee fiend if I ever met one!) will have to try the sour cream and chai version listed by lots_a_smiles. The Espresso Spread is wonderful.. I might have to figure out how to get it like a caramel macchiato too. Love this recipe, it will be a staple of yours too!

Very easy to make, but just a bit dry for my liking. Next time Ill add some applesauce to bring up the moisture. The frosting is good. They are at their best if served warm.

Delicious! I skipped the frosting and instead of the milk, I added 8 oz sour cream and 1/2 cup hot water steeped with chai tea. Amazing!

OMG Amazing. I didnt make the espresso spread - but the muffins were so moist and tasty. I was dancing in my seat eating them and I am not normally a chocolate eating muffin person. You have to try them!!!!

These muffins...are superb. Presentation? Beautiful. They have those decorative little cracks over smooth, lightly rounded tops, perfectly baked. Flavor? Delicious. Rich, warm, coffee-chocolate goodness. Texture? Fantastic - perfect balance of moist and crumbly. Spread? Like coffee cream cheese cookie dough. Give a muffin a quick, refreshing zap in the microwave and pair it with some of this spread - you get warm, sweet muffin crumbles paired with cool, creamy, tangy-sweet espresso spread. I used espresso powder for the instant coffee, and these were magnificent with a cup of tea in the mornings. Because espresso and tea can get along.

Dense but good taste

Easy to make quite dense. I gave it 4 stars cuz it doesnt taste like coffee atall..more like cinnamon cupcakes....next time if I make these will reduce cinnamon to half a tsp, perhaps add cappuccino powder instead of coffee granules.....glaze was ok...I used a tbsp or two of honey to sweeten the glaze to my liking....it gave a touch of coffee flavouring to the cupcakes....these r better next day...my 8 yr old loves coffee flavour but didnt go any where near these ....I think it needs coffee bits instead of chocolate chips to truly enhance its cappuccino flavor.

This recipe is ridiculously simple and easy to make with regular store cupboard ingredients. Tasted AMAZING!

Very yummy! The only change I made was I used 1/4 C applesauce and 1/4 C butter and lessened the sugar to 1/2 cup. I have made these many times and they can be a little dry, so this last time I baked them at 350 for 20 minutes and they were very moist. This is one of the recipes my family requests the most! Thanks for sharing!

Nice flavor , dense, we thought they were slightly dry, but the cream cheese spread fixed that.
