I can't decide which is better: the chocolate chips or the cherries. Read more Luckily, with this muffin, I don't have to! See less

I made these muffins this morning and they are very good. I think the tartness of the dried cherries adds a bit of a surprise and I wouldn't change a thing. Great Post!
