Every time I've made these I've gotten requests for the recipe and they don't last long around my house, everyone fights over the last one! I do halve the recipe as 20 muffins is more than enough for us, but the flavor can't be beat!

I loved these sweet, moist muffins! This recipe makes a huge batch, though. I found out that they keep in the freezer well and can be warmed up and enjoyed in a jiffy!

Yum! I skipped the glaze though, because they are sweet enough without it.
