They came. They did not conquer. They went.

That’s how I feel about the chocolate muffin recipe that I have been meaning to post for you. I put a couple teaser pics up a week or so ago before actually trying them myself, and while they looked amazing, that first set of muffins was just ho-hum. So I pretended I was actually a baker and completely overhauled the recipe to try to make it more moist, more chocolately, more delicious. At first I was thrilled with my new recipe, but then, as I kept eating them, I realized that it still isn’t quite right. My hubby agreed, and I think he pinned the problem: they’re too flour-y. So… back to the drawing board.

In the meantime, there are plenty of other dessert recipes coming your way to keep you entertained for a while.

AND… better yet, I got permission from Cook’s Illustrated to post 2 recipes a month, which means you WILL see my famous pie crust recipe that I had told you is copyrighted.
