# Step-by-Step Guide:
01 - Set oven to 350°F. Grease a 20-cup mini muffin tin thoroughly to prevent sticking.
02 - In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and 1/2 cup sugar. Stir in the sprinkles for even distribution.
03 - In a separate bowl, whisk melted butter, eggs, milk, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and homogeneous.
04 - Pour wet ingredients into the dry mixture. Fold gently with a spatula until just combined, ensuring not to overmix.
05 - Fill each mini muffin cup about three-quarters full with batter. Bake for 16–18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean and tops are lightly golden.
06 - While items bake, stir together 1/4 cup sugar and the ground cinnamon in a small bowl.
07 - Allow muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then remove carefully. While still warm, brush each with melted butter and roll in the cinnamon sugar mixture until evenly coated.
08 - Insert a lollipop stick or skewer into each muffin pop if desired. Serve warm or at room temperature.
