BUTTER TART MUFFINS

Steps:

• Place raisins, sugar, butter, eggs, milk, and vanilla in a large heavy-bottomed saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently until mixture is hot, slightly thickened, and just beginning to bubble, about 4 to 5 minutes. Cool slightly, uncovered, in the refrigerator, while continuing with recipe.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease 12 muffin cups or coat with cooking spray.
• Stir flour with baking powder, soda, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Make a well in center and pour in warm raisin mixture, stirring just until combined. Stir in nuts until evenly mixed. Spoon batter into muffin cups.
• Bake at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) in center of oven until golden and a cake tester inserted into center of a muffin comes out clean, about 15 to 17 minutes. Remove from oven and immediately pour about 1 teaspoon syrup over each muffin. Cool muffins in cups for 10 minutes, then remove to a rack. Serve warm.

BUTTER TART MUFFINS

Steps:

• Place sugar, butter, eggs, milk and vanilla in a heavy-bottom saucepan over medium heat and cook, stirring constantly, until slightly thickened and beginning to bubble. Remove from heat, strain if necessary (to remove any bits of cooked egg). Stir in raisins and let cool, uncovered, in the refrigerator for 10 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 350°F. and grease or line 6 muffin cups.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and baking soda. Add flour mixture to raisin/butter mixture and mix until all the flour is absorbed. Divide batter between 6 prepared muffin cups. (They do not rise much at all, so you'll want to fill/over-fill the cup up.) Bake for 22-25 minutes or until golden and a cake tester comes out clean. Remove from oven and spoon a kitchen teaspoon of maple syrup over each muffin. (I like to spoon another bit of maple syrup over the muffins just before serving, as well).
