    What 1 Other has said

    • I tried to follow this recipy but found it really hard to follow. I should have read it through thoroughly before i started. However i wasnt sure what to cream the sugar with and at what point this part of the mixture came together with the rest. My muffins turned out heavy and not well risen. Im sure if followed through corretly it would be a lovelly recipy.
