- Yummy muffins Dancer.......Added a tsp of almond extract for a little zip and dipped the warm tops in melted butter then in sugar. Loved them! Thank You!
- I just made this & followed the recipe exact. I even added a teaspoon of almond flavoring. I also sprinkled cane sugar on the tops for the last 5 minutes of baking. And, while these are very good, they are still pretty bland to me. Next time, I will add a little more sugar (I think another quarter cup would help) & some cherry flavoring (I am going to try a half teaspoon) along with the almond flavoring. The recipe made 12 by the way & took me 20 minutes to bake in an electric oven. I liked it, but it still needs a bit more 'something'.
- these are great...i added a handful of mini choc. chips to 1/2 the batter and it made them outstanding!!! (this recipe made 14 muffins for me)
- These muffins not only taste great, they are extremely pretty! They would be perfect for a little girl's tea party or a baby shower. I made them according to the recipe and we all loved them. When I suggested adding almond extract everyone protested because they were afraid I'd mess them up. LOL! Great recipe Dancer^! I know I'll be using it again.
- These were great! I used splenda for baking and they turned out picture perfect...great for Valentines day.
