  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 1 egg at room temperature, + 2 egg yolks
  • 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla
  • ½ cup sour cream

Toppings

  • 6 samoa cookies cut in half
  • cup coconut shredded flakes

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 350. Line a muffin tin with cupcake liners (12).

Pour batter into prepared liners filling each about 2/3 full. Bake 18-22 minutes until an inserted toothpick comes out clean.
