Melt the butter and let it cool slightly. Mix the flour well with the baking powder. Lightly beat the eggs with the milk and buttermilk. Stir the egg wash and butter into the flour. Fold in the Cabanossi, herbs, and Emmental cheese. Arrange paper baking cups on the muffin tin or grease the tin well. Pour in the batter. Bake on the middle rack for 25 to 30 minutes, until the muffins are golden brown. Serve warm with a mixed salad and a dollop of sour cream, or cold as a snack.
