a note on the muffins.
i stuck about 20 of these muffins in a freezer bag on friday night so i could bring them to work this week. i let them defrost for a couple of hours this morning (~10 seconds in the microwave works too) and they’re still moist and great. this would probably also be a great use for more savory muffins (with cheese and cooked sausage or bacon crumbles) to freeze in small batches and grab for...

no-fuss mini muffins.
i am very bad at feelings but pretty good at baking, so i’ve been known to use cookies, cakes, and muffins to express my love. these are mini muffins of love, thrown together when i only had a couple of hours to spare and no budget, but wanted to let my friend know she’s one of my best bros.

butterbeer whoopie pies.
when my friend let me know she would be hosting another wizard rock show, i immediately started planning what i would bake. i will use the flimsiest excuse to bake ridiculous desserts (i even invented a holiday), so actual events are very exciting for me. i had been toying with the idea of butterbeer cake pops, but then whoopie pies starting showing up everywhere and they looked like more fun....
