These were delicious and that icing? OMG amazing!! Super easy to make and very more-ish. These did not last long! -
Wow these were light, fluffy and delicious! People kept commenting on how they tasted and looked like muffin tops. If only Seinfield had this recipe ;) I did end of substituting 1/2 of the flour for whole wheat flour since I ran out of regular but otherwise followed the directions perfectly. -
