These black and white and delicious muffins are much loved by children but, once tasted, however, adults also want an encore. My Italian twist is a mild, high-quality extra virgin olive oil instead of butter (for very soft and lighter small cakes) and crispy amaretti for a special taste.

Rice syrup (or rice malt), gives a very fine texture to this sweet. Use it often in your cakes and it will be your trump card!
