SO HOW'D IT GO?
These were AWESOME!!!
These turned out perfectly, moist but not too cakey. They aren't too sweet and the baking time of 25 minutes was right on. The only change I made was adding a tsp of vanilla. A nice change from blueberry muffins, and a great way to use up strawberries that are past their prime. Definitely a keeper!!
