These are awesome. I've made them so many times, always with great results. Then of course, the day I make them for a bake sale, I'm out of vegetable oil so sub Olive oil. Yuck. and I'm in a rush so I scoop instead of sprinkle the topping on. Bad Bad Bad. the topping sunk to the middle and made horrible looking muffins. Stick to the recipe and all is good!!

We loved these. They are very soft and yummy. I only wish they had a more intense orange flavor...I think I may try concentrate for that. I followed the recipe except I added the zest from 1 orange and squeezed fresh juice from it. I also substituted 1/2 cup pecan chips for the cup of shredded coconut for the topping. I also may try this all mandarin (flesh, zest and juice).Thanks for the recipe Redsie! Made for Holiday Tag.
