Equipment

Muffin tin
Mixing bowls
Measuring cups and spoons
Whisk or electric mixer
Rubber spatula

Ingredients

1/2 cup butter, softened
2/3 cup sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon rum extract
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup milk

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
Beat in the eggs, one at a time, then stir in the vanilla and rum extracts.
In another bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with the milk. Mix until just combined.
Spoon the batter into a greased muffin tin, filling each cup about two-thirds full.
Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow muffins to cool in the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes

For a richer flavor, use high-quality rum or rum extract. Feel free to customize the recipe by adding nuts, chocolate chips, or spices like cinnamon. Store leftover muffins in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days, or freeze them for up to three months. Enjoy these muffins with coffee or tea for a delightful treat!
