Number Of Ingredients 12

1 ½ cups raisins
¾ cup white sugar
½ cup butter, cut into pieces
2 eggs
½ cup milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
salt to taste
½ cup chopped walnuts
¼ cup corn syrup

Steps:

  • Place raisins, sugar, butter, slightly beaten 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. Cool slightly, uncovered, in the refrigerator.
  • Stir flour with baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Make a well in centre, and pour in warm raisin mixture; stir just until combined. Stir in nuts until evenly mixed. Spoon batter into greased muffin cups.

These muffins were easy to make and turned out great! The filling was delicious and the muffins were moist and fluffy. I used chopped walnuts instead of raisins, and they were a nice addition. I will definitely be making these again.

I'm not usually a fan of butter tarts, but these muffins were amazing! The filling was rich and creamy, and the muffins were perfectly moist. I especially liked the hint of cinnamon in the batter. I will definitely be making these again.

These muffins were a bit dry for my taste, but the flavor was good. I think I would add some more butter or oil to the muffin batter next time. Overall, they were a good recipe and I would make them again with a few adjustments.

These muffins were a bit too sweet for my taste, but my kids loved them! The filling was very good, but I would have preferred a less sweet muffin batter. Overall, they were a good recipe and I would make them again with a few adjustments.
