  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/3 cup milk

Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F
  2. Line 12 muffin cups with paper liners
  3. Into a bowl, mix flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.

These sound good, I'll bet marshchino cherries would be good in them too. Great post.


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!
