My family and I like this recipe and I keep making it, because I like the ingredients and because they like the taste. Sometimes I add other goodies, like white or milk chocolate chips, and since they are English, we often have custard (vanilla pudding) with them as well, so it's good to keep them as healthy as I can. One problem I've had is they don't raise very well, and can't hold themselves above the muffin cup. So the last time, I just made them smaller and put in a scoop of protein powder. They cooked through just fine, with a nice texture, and no one complained. I'll keep using this recipe!
