Ingredients
Muffins
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2/3 cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 3 ripe bananas, mashed
- 2 large eggs
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
- 1 cup chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup walnuts
Frosting
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened
- 3 cups powdered sugar
- 3 Tablespoons whole milk
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
- Pinch of salt
- Green food gel dye
- Edible shimmer dust
- Red food gel dye
- Black food gel dye
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Prep a muffin tin with liners.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, brown sugar, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.
- Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and stir in the butter, sour cream, mashed bananas, eggs, and vanilla, until just combined. Fold in the chocolate chips and walnuts.
- Spoon the batter into the prepped muffin tin. Bake for 17-19 minutes, until a toothpick test comes out clean. Let cool on a wire rack.
- In the bowl of an electric mixer, combine the butter, powdered sugar, milk, cinnamon, vanilla, and salt, until fluffy.
- Separate the frosting into three bowls, placing 1/2 in one bowl and stirring in the green food gel dye and shimmer dust to create a metallic icing. In the second bowl place 1/4 of the frosting, stirring in the red food gel dye. Into the third bowl stir the remaining frosting with black food gel dye.
- Spread the icing onto the muffins to create Boba Fett’s signature look.
