These are fabulous!! The filling, topping, and base of these muffins are each really good; but together, they're extraordinary (especially when warm!). I made the recipe as written, but scaled it down to six servings--and ended up with seven beautiful, soft, moist, flavorful, regular size muffins. Thanks for posting, DeeVaFoodie; this one's absolutely a keeper! (Made for Let's P-A-R-T-Y! 2011.)
