These were a hit. I made them as a dessert for Easter dinner. I followed the recipe as written except I only got 12 muffins. Mine were done in 25 minutes. I loved that they were so easy to make.

Everyone loved them who tried them! Got lots of raves from the younger crowd, and the older folks had at least one too!
