Pine cone
- 400 g softened butter
- 3 tbsps milk
- 300 g icing sugar
- 50 g cocoa powder

Preheat the oven to 210°C. Prepare a muffin pan and paper cups.
In a bowl mix together melted butter, oil, vanilla syrup, and sugars. You can use an egg whisker as well. Whisk for a minute until the mixture gets creamy.
Add eggs and whisk again until combined. Add sour cream and repeat. Add flour, a pinch of salt, and baking powder. Mix well until the flour disappears.
Let the mixture rest for 5 minutes. In the meantime put paper cups in every second hole in a muffin pan. Fill up the paper cups and bake for 5 minutes.
Then decrease the temperature to 180°C and bake for 8-16 minutes. Depends on how big your muffins are. I recommend baking until the toothpick comes out clean. Take them out of the oven, get them out of the muffin pan after 4 minutes and let them cool completely.
