This is the easiest muffin recipe I've ever tried. They are the perfect solution for unexpected guests and you can customize with several kind of fillings such as jelly, chocolate pieces, cheese... In case you go for cheese, I would suggest that you cut the sugar off the batter or use half of what is below. They look real cute when hot from the oven in a nice basket! Some tea or fresh coffee will make an unforgettable "couple"!
Sabe quando você recebe aquelas visitas exigentes de última hora? Não sei se acontece com vocês, mas morando aqui no acampamento, é quase rotina......... Se você quiser impressionar com um home-made treat, esses muffins são a solução. É uma das coisas mais rápidas que já fiz e todo mundo adorou, principalmente porque você pode rechear do que quiser... Já fiz com geléia de amora, frutas vermelhas, um quadradinho de chocolate amargo, e até queijo cheddar. Mas para recheios salgados sugiro tirar o açucar da massa, ou pelo menos reduzir a metade... E eu adoro receitas que criam porções individuais, ficam mais charmosas e delicadas... Enjoy!
