  1. These were great! Nice flavor, color and consistency. Not too many nuts or chocolate chips, just enough for good flavor. I first made in the jar and then later mixed them up, I would suggest mixing the flour and other dry ingredients, except brown sugar, an making that one layer. Be sure to pack down well from the start so it will all fit! I also yielded 21 muffins which is unusual for me since I usually overfill the tins. I'll definitely make them again! Made for My 3 Chefs Fall 2009.

I live in the great Southwest with warm (sometimes hot) days, cool evenings, and beautiful sunsets. I am married to my high school sweetheart. We have two wonderful sons who are now grown and out of the house and two wonderful grandchildren that are so much fun. I love to read, garden, and plan trips with my family and friends. <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/Adopted1smp.jpg" border="0" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/smPACp.jpg" border="0" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket"> <img src="http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e347/Saturn6666/Other/tagforpage1.jpg"> <a href="http://photobucket.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://i174.photobucket.com/albums/w115/bugh8er/holidaylinenswap07a.jpg" border="0" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket"></a> <img src="http://www.recipezaar.com/members/home/1956/holidaylightssticker.jpg"> <img src="http://i68.photobucket.com/albums/i25/bayhill/bswap11.jpg"> <img src="http://i76.photobucket.com/albums/j10/housedaughter/cswap.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b367/chefpaulag/banners/PARTICIPANTValentineBanner.jpg?t=1203478805> <img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v204/derf16/food%20photography%20series/MuffinLovesticker.jpg"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/PAC08Main.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/adoptedspring08.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y53/DUCHESS13/Zaar%20World%20Tour%204/ZWTAB-tg.gif"> <img src="http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b280/carolinamoon21/Ingredients/FISHSEAFDSTICKER.jpg"> <a href="http://s80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/?action=view¤t=CookingSchoolHost1.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/CookingSchoolHost1.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e110/flower753/Food/my3chefsnov2008.jpg"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/PACfall08partic.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/IWasAdoptedfall08.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v726/annacia/Permanent%20Banners/i-connected-125.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><img src="http://i146.photobucket.com/albums/r271/copperhorse58/Birthday%20and%20Celebration%20Images/spicesswap_amtag3.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Iwasadopted.jpg"> <img src="http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg271/MrsTeny/Permanent%20Collection/PACSpring09Participation.jpg"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b367/chefpaulag/final-1.jpg"> <img src="http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b399/susied214/permanent%20collection/participantbannerzwt5.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"> <img src="http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/Animation6.gif"><img src="http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/PACsticker-Adopted.jpg"> <img src=http://i23.photobucket.com/albums/b367/chefpaulag/vegetabel_soup_banner-1-1.jpg?t=1263826088> </a><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v726/annacia/Permanent%20Banners/snow-queens-sm.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>
