directions

  • In a small pan melt margarine over medium heat. Add brown sugar and cinnamon, stir until sugar has melted. Remove from heat.
  • Grease muffin tin (do not use liners).

  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Cakey part: In a large bowl, sift flour and baking powder; set aside.

  • Stir vanilla into butter/sugar mix, then, add the egg whites and beat well.
  • In a small bowl, combine the pineapple juice and milk.
  • Fold the wet mixes into the dry in alternating fashion (between the butter/sugar mix and juice/milk mix).
  • Stir until it's just combined -- don't over mix.
  • Pour batter into mufin tin over topping mix.
  • Bake for 20 minute or until muffin is done ( i use the toothpick test).
  • Let cool for 5 minute and run the edges of muffins with an icing knife and carefully lift out muffins -- transfer to plate.

  1. very good! I made a few substitutions but they were perfect... my co-workers really enjoyed them too!
     
  2. Delicious muffins, just like upside down cake but in muffin form. I also used regular butter. I cut the recipe in half and made 6 muffins with good results. I used pineapple tidbits instead of slices. Thanks for sharing SoupCookie. Made for I recommend tag.
     
  3. Oh wow these are good! I used butter in place of margarine. They are just sweet enough and just easy enough for my 7yoDD to help me make these. They are really really good! Thank you for a new staple in my kitchen. They did take about 30 minutes to cook through. Made and reviewed for PAC Fall 2008.

Why "SoupCookie"? My cousin Ryan use to come to my house after school sometimes and was *always* hungry! So he used to make his version of chocolate chip cookies and I can't remember what he did or didn't do right but the cookies never failed to come out flat and doughy and gooey. We'd put them in a bowl with milk and eat it with a spoon.....sooooo good! To this very day his recipe has not been deciphered ;) <img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg">
