I was very wary when titling this post. Last time I posted a coffee cake, I got multiple commenters and emailers saying, “Excuse me, but where is the coffee in this coffee cake recipe? I have read it through multiple times and I just cannot find the coffee. Please help!” No, you are reading that … Read more
Behold. The perfect blueberry muffin. After weeks of experimentation and tweaking, it’s finally here. It is moist and fluffy, just as I dreamed it would be. It has the tall, perfectly cracked crown, sparkling with sugar. It even passed the squishy test, the perfect pillowy softness when lightly squeezed. Plus, it only dirties one bowl. … Read more
