Very good muffins. I love the texture of them I used 1/2 cup melted butter and cut the instant coffee to 3 tsp just right for us. I love the walnuts and powdered icing sugar as a topping. I could taste the richness the baileys added to the muffin. I got 11 nice sized muffins which were baked at 375 for 14 minutes. Made for the Kaffee Klatsch in the cooking photo fourm.
