This was wonderful served it with Hamburger-Vegetable Crockpot Soup#101962.---The PROBLEM was the quantity was wrong-too much for 1 pan of 12 muffins-I decided to drop the temp to 325' and poured it into 2-8" cake pans, cooked till toothpick came out clear. Rated it a 5 inspite of that because the flavor was SO GOOD!!--POPCORN who would have guessed?
