Why You’ll Love This Sweet Roll Chupa Chups Halvah Muffin
Imagine if a soft, fluffy cinnamon roll and a nostalgic Chupa Chups lollipop had a muffin baby, and then that baby was babysat by halvah (you know, that dreamy sesame-based confection). That’s this recipe in a nutshell.
It’s weirdly wonderful, indulgently sweet, and just the thing to distract your picky eater or satisfy your sweet craving after one too many kale smoothies. Plus, it’s fast—because you have better things to do than spend your whole Saturday baking.
Ingredients You’ll Need

For the Muffin Base:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup melted butter
- 2 eggs
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
For the Filling & Swirl:
- 1/2 cup crushed halvah
- 2 Chupa Chups lollipops, crushed (try strawberry & cream or cherry!)
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- Optional: 1 tbsp brown sugar for extra swirl goodness
For Topping:
- Powdered sugar for dusting
- Optional: A tiny drizzle of honey or tahini glaze
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Preheat & Prep
Set your oven to 375°F and line a muffin tin with cute little cupcake liners. You’ll want 10-12 liners depending on size.
2. Mix the Dry Stuff
In a big ol’ bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. This is your muffin dry zone.
3. Make It Moist (yep, we said it)
In a separate bowl, combine melted butter, eggs, milk, and vanilla extract. Pour the wet mixture into the dry and stir until just combined. Don’t overmix—unless you want muffin rocks (you don’t).
4. Swirl It Real Good

Fold in the crushed halvah and those gloriously sticky bits of Chupa Chups lollipop. The swirl should look messy—and delicious.
5. Bake & Wait (Painfully)

Spoon the batter into liners, filling them about 3/4 full. Sprinkle with brown sugar-cinnamon mix if using. Bake for 18–20 minutes or until the tops spring back and your kitchen smells like a fairground married a Middle Eastern bakery.
6. Cool, Top, and Try Not to Eat All of Them
Let them cool (a bit), dust with powdered sugar, and drizzle lightly with tahini glaze if you’re feeling fancy.
Quick Tips for Maximum Muffin Magic
- Don’t stress the swirl. Imperfect is perfect here. That’s what gives you candy caramelized edges.
- Chupa Chups pro tip: Pop them in a zip-top bag and whack them with a rolling pin. Fun and therapeutic.
- Halvah hack: If your halvah is too crumbly, microwave it for 5 seconds to soften before crumbling into the batter.
From My Kitchen to Yours
This muffin came to life after my daughter tried to shove a Chupa Chups into her oatmeal. It wasn’t pretty—but it sparked an idea. Fast forward a few (okay, many) kitchen tests later, and now this is the only muffin she asks for before school. That’s saying something from a kid who thinks anything green is poison.
Sweet FAQ Time
Can I use another type of candy instead of Chupa Chups?
Sure! You can try hard candies like Jolly Ranchers or even crushed caramel. But Chupa Chups adds that nostalgic, creamy twist.
How do I store these muffins?
Pop them in an airtight container for 3 days at room temp or freeze for up to 2 months. Microwave for 15 seconds to revive their magic.
What if I don’t have halvah?
Try tahini mixed with a little honey as a swirl alternative. It won’t be exact, but it’ll still taste amazing.
