Maltesers just got a thousand times better!

1 1/2 (225g) cups plain flour
1 cup crushed Maltesers, plus 24 whole Maltesers to decorate
1/2 cup (110g) caster sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 egg
3/4 cup sour cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup melted unsalted butter
1/4 cup (60ml) milk

Caramel icing

1 1/2 cups (225g) icing sugar, sifted
1 tablespoon milk
2 tablespoons golden syrup
30g unsalted butter, softened

Method

1.

To make icing, beat all ingredients together with a wooden spoon.
2.

Preheat the oven to 180°C. Grease two 12-hole mini muffin pans.
3.

Sift flour into a large bowl with crushed maltesers, sugar, baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt. In a separate bowl, beat together egg, sour cream, vanilla, butter and milk, then fold mixture into dry ingredients until just combined. Pour into muffin pans and bake for 16-20 mins, until a skewer inserted into the centre comes out clean. Cool slightly in the pan, then remove to cool completely.
4.

Spread icing over muffins, then decorate with a whole Malteser.
