10 tablespoons unsalted butter melted and cooled

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Directions

For the muffins: Combine the first six ingredients. In a separate bowl, whisk the eggnog, egg, melted butter and vanilla extract. Mix wet and dry ingredients and scoop into muffin tin. Top with streusel topping. Bake 20 minutes or until lightly browned. If you want even more of an eggnog punch, combine eggnog, powdered sugar and a pinch of nutmeg and drizzle on top.
