Servings: persons

3/4 cup red wine
1/2 cinnamon stick
2 whole cloves
1 star anise
3/4 cup sugar + 3 tbs
1/2 Orange sliced
1 1/4 sticks butter or margarine
3 medium eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 3/4 ounces dark chocolate finely grated
2 cups whipping cream
12 maraschino cherries for decoration

1
First, make the mulled wine. Pour the wine into a pan with the cinnamon stick, cloves, star anise, 2 tbsp of sugar and the orange and heat gently to a simmer. Remove from the heat and allow to cool.
2
To make the muffins, blend the butter and 3/4 cup of the sugar together with a fork until it is light and fluffy, then beat in the eggs one by one. Stir in a 1/2 tsp of vanilla extract and the cinnamon. Next, sift the baking powder and the flour together. Pass the mulled wine through a strainer and measure 1/3 cup. Mix a little flour into the butter cream, then a dash of wine, then some grated chocolate and repeat until the ingredients are used up, keeping a little grated chocolate to one side for decoration. Line the holes of a 12-portion muffin pan with baking cup liners and pour in the muffin mixture. Bake in a preheated oven at 350u00b0F. Remove from the oven and allow to cool on a wire rack.
3
To make the topping, whip the cream with 1 tbsp of sugar and the rest of the vanilla extract. Next, gently stir in the rest of the mulled red wine, bit by bit, ensuring that the cream does not become too liquid. Spread the cream over the top of the muffins, decorate with the cherries and grated chocolate and serve.
