I followed the recipe exactly. Turned out a very pretty muffin with just the right texture. However, since the recipe does call for cranberries, the recipe did not call for enough sugar to level the tartness of the fresh cranberries. I would suggest adding more sugar or soaking the cranberries in a sugar syrup before adding to the mix. I ended up topping the muffins with a sugar glaze to make them a little sweeter.

Newlywed as of August 26, 2006! Finally get to cook/bake in my very own kitchen with my very own things! I love to cook, bake and try new recipes. RecipeZaar has already saved me a few nights when I wasn't sure what I'd make for supper. I will start adding recipes and continue to build my cookbook. Onwards and upwards!
