chocolate chip muffin
Taken for Our Daily Challenge: taste.
Today I needed a pick me up and felt the urge to bake something...good thing todays challenge worked to my advantage. Hmm, now what to bake? Well, I have been on the hunt for a really good chocolate chip muffin recipe. My daughter loves the choc. chip muffins from Tim Hortons (a national coffee and donut franchise here in Canada) and so I figured I can make my own version that would hopefully taste better than Tim's (and probably be much healthier too). Well, the first recipe I tried was a dud! They tasted more like the texture of a tea biscuit and were too dry. I wanted them to taste softer and have a more cake-like texture. So today was the day I attempted recipe # 2 - and here it is. I tasted them and they are pretty good. Daughter comes home from school soon and the verdict will be out shortly after...
Update: The verdict is she says they taste about equal. Well, I will have to keep trying!!! :D
