Topics: muffins rock the house
I was messing around in my kitchen last night in a vain attempt to concoct a dish to work with the blackberry compote I made. Vanilla ice cream was getting..well...too vanilla. I found that a citrus pound cake worked out very well but instead of making a cake, I used the batter to make muffins! I love muffins.

Do you love muffins?
Do you find the shape of muffins alluring?

I luv fried muffin tops!-
fried? like deep fried?
-
No. what i do is get a big muffin...like really big...and cut off the top. Then simply butter the bottom of the muffin top and fry on a skillet.
It's really good with berry muffins because the berries get all hot and squish, or chocolate chip muffins because the choc gets all warm and melty. -
that is an awesome idea!
-
don't you feel like a dumb f#$k for not thinking of it your damn self!
-
I actually do...
-
Wow... That IS a good idea! -
@jaybetee What do you do with the stumps? -
he probably gives them to homeless people...
-
Wouldn't surprise me one bit. They are great for bread pudding. I was a baker for years when that seinfeld episode came out we were actually flooded with people wanting just the tops.
-
that is freaking hilarious...
-
i fry the stump too!
-
no way! both sides or just one side?
-
just the top side where it was cut
-
man...I need to get an oversized muffin tin so I can make muffins and then fry them
-

Muffins, yum! Any kind, especially blueberry with almond pieces. The shape always reminds me of the mushroom cloud after an atomic explosion.-
those sound really good
...I never thought of muffins that way
-
-
I love muffins, but the shape reminds me of girls wearing jeans, and a shirt too small.-
that is a terrible mental image
-
I know. It gives muffins a bad stigma.

-
I made boobie muffins once. but usually I like muffins because they bake faster.-
haha! What kind of boobie muffins?

This is killing me so I have to plug myself...check out the blog catalog blog today to see you know who!!
-
Who?
-
me dummy!
-
it is one of my 'tamer' posts
-
Nope, sorry. Not ringing any bells.
-
*sigh*
-
-
a link to the bc blog would be cool
-
had a feeling you were waiting
-
It was tearing me apart inside
-
looks good, and you black berries go good on anything, ok so maybe not bacon
-
I bet they would go good on bacon! Good idea!
-
I don't know about the bacon, but I'd put money on it kicking ass on breakfast sausage patties.
-
mmm...sweet meat
-
No, sweet potatoes! -
NO sweet potatoes!!!

Hey FreakSmack - I thought you only liked peanuts LOL-
Mainly peanuts and peanut accessories, but I like to branch out now and again

Hey Monkey on your back - I am on your site now, if I could only learn how to work the oven I might tackle blending ingredients next!
-
yeah that knob is confusing
-
-
I'm not a huge fan of muffins but these sound interesting enough for me to try over the weekend. -
Is it really pound cake (pound of butter, pound of flour, etc.)? That stuff will kill you, but you'll enjoy every minute of it. I'm trying to resist the urge to click over and print the recipe right now. They sound fantastic.
-
no not true pound cake but there is a stick of butter and a cup of flour involved. Plus orange and lemon juice and zest.

I love citrus pound cake muffins!
Oh, I just bought a pint of blueberries and a pound of strawberries.
CA, tell me what to make with them.-
I have not made one but a friend of mine made a "dessert pizza" that was slammin'
For the strawberries I got a tub of those bad boys so I have a bunch of strawberry recipes:

and my personal favorite:
cookingforassholes.blogspot.com/2009/04/strawberry-lemon-pie.html
If you make this I would slice up the strawberries and layer on top rather than the way I did it. -
as for the blueberries I would just eat them as is...or put them on top of stuff.
-
So... many... links... my... eyes... they...burn
I like the strawberry rum one. Pretty damn good.
The lemon pie looks good too. -
I know right? I copied them all on my clipboard in case this gets deleted for obvious reasons!
-
I thought about reporting it. But decided you would enjoy that too much.
-
I am tempted to try the lemon strawberry one. Can I substitute a graham cracker crust? I know this is evil to suggest, but I would like to use a *gasp* store bought crust.
-
I am sure it would work out fine
-
-
I bet those flavors would be good morphed into pancake batter, topped with the blackberry compote blog.blogcatalog.com/ (just in case any of you missed it), with a side of sausage patties
-
not a bad idea!

Cooking Asshole I was in Barnes & Noble and I saw a book that made me think of you - it was called "Bacon - A love Story"-
I love bacon! What was it about? Bacon? and Love?
-
OK I said I thought of you and your blog- it didn't interest me enough to pick it up and actually LOOK at it! I was probably distracted by a book about cats.

looks like a tasty read!
