In case you are wondering why I have named these muffins as "surprise muffins", it is because when you bite into the muffins, you will get a surprise. Inside the muffins are something crunchy. What could it be?
I had added crushed cookies to the muffin batter. You can use any type of cookies you like but in this case, I used the balance of the Chinese New Year goodies which is locally known as "rope". It is so named because it is made in the shape of a rope. I used my fingers to crush the "rope" because I wanted the filling of the muffins to be tasted instead of blending into the muffin batter.
INGREDIENTS220g self-raising flour
100g butter (softened)
100g castor sugar
1 egg (lightly beaten)
250ml milk

4. Cream the butter and sugar in a mixing bowl using an electric mixer until light and fluffy.
