Maple Almond Monkey Muffins

These were about the most sinful muffins that I’ve made in a long time, but it’s always good to indulge once in a while…

Maple Almond Monkey Muffins

INGREDIENTS:

1 12-ounce can biscuits (10 in a can)
3 tablespoons maple syrup
1/4 cup butter, melted
2/3 cup sugar
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup finely chopped pecans

DIRECTIONS:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.  Place cupcake liners in 12 muffin cups.  With kitchen shears, cut each biscuit into 4 pieces.  In a small bowl, combine the maple syrup and melted butter.  In a separate bowl, mix the sugar, cinnamon and chopped pecans.  Dip each biscuit piece into the maple butter, and roll in the sugar mixture.  Place 3 or 4 coated pieces in each muffin cup, pressing to compact.  Bake the muffins for 15 to 17 minutes.  Allow to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before removing to wire racks.

    An attention-grabbing dialogue is value comment. I feel that it’s best to write extra on this matter, it may not be a taboo topic however generally people are not enough to talk on such topics. To the next. Cheers
