As the muffins rise and puff up during baking, the topping will spread out so it may look like a lot at the beginning, but it will be just right when they are baked. I like to use melted butter when making recipes that call for a lot of spice since it adds rich undertones that carry the spice well so it is more rounded rather than sharp and astringent. Since muffin batter is more lean with less sugar than cake batter, it is more likely to develop gluten and result in a tougher texture.
