Cappuccino Kiss Muffins

Submitted by Marg (CaymanDesigns)

"A delicious cappuccino muffin with a chocolate surprise! They are best served within at least one day of baking. They get a little 'rubbery' after that. Also, the kiss pretty much sinks to the bottom so I think you could put the batter in the muffin tins and then push the kiss down into the center about halfway instead of having to add the batter in two steps."

I love muffins and I love cappuccino, so this recipe was right up my alley. :) They're absolutely, positively divine! I made them for a party over the weekend and they were a huge hit! Everyone gave them 10 stars! The chocolate kiss in the middle is a great idea. Thanks for posting this recipe, Marg!
