Notes
These muffins can be enjoyed warm or at room temperature. Serve them with whipped cream or extra Nutella for a special touch. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days, or freeze wrapped tightly for up to three months. Rotate the muffin tin halfway through baking for even cooking.
