Muffin mayhem!

Well, I dunno about you guys, but I was very excited to see that Callum has published his muffin receipe on blog!! So, of course, being the wonderful cook that i am...not, I thought I may as well give them a go! They looked easy enough to make actually, but then again, this is me. So first of all I discovered we dont actually have a muffin tray, so after pondering for a while how necessary such an item would be, I decided it was probably quite essential, so I nipped down to Jacksons to get one (by the way, do you think i'd get commission for the Jacksons plug?) Then I made sure I had all the correct ingredients (yeah i'd learnt my lesson from last time) and that was me.

Actually, the receipe was pretty straight forward, not too many places where I could go wrong. Although my crumble topping didnt quite work out- it wasn't so much a crumble as huge blobs of mixture, but I figured it would do the job! So just be careful with that if your trying this at home!! Also be careful not to fill the muffin tray too full of mixture, as it tends to overflow, quite a lot!! I also forgot to get muffin cases when I was in Jacksons, but figured I could get away without them, but apparently not! Yeah the muffins are kinda totally stuck to the muffin tray at the moment, can't even scrape them out with a knife, consequently my family will be eating them directly out of the muffin tray with a spoon tonight! But believe me it is so worth it, cos they taste incredible!! Toffee muffins rule- especially when you use thortons toffee!! So i'm definately gonna try them again soon, try and perfect them and actually get them to resemble muffins too, that would be good!

You know I think that maybe subconsciously, I deliberately made these muffins badly, just so I could make more! They really do taste so good!! But be warned, if you're making these at home- they're not as easy to make as they sound, I reckon they require some baking expertise and if you want them to look nice aswell as taste good, then get Callum to make you some. Actually Callum I reckon you should make a video of how to bake the perfect muffins!! What d'ya think?

I decided that as I was baking, I might as well make a banana cake aswell, and this time I put baking soda in it, so it did actually rise, unlike the last time when i ended up with a cake 2cm tall!! So think i'll go sample some of that now!!
