No Muffin Tops

Muffin

For your consideration, two cupcake/muffin pans, and one popover pan.  The smaller muffin tin was my mother's.  I have fond memories of her baking cupcakes for my classes when
I was in elementary school.  She was good at it and actually liked baking them (she did hate to *cook* - that was different).

 

I don't know that I've baked cupcakes, ever, since moving out of her home.  I've made muffins a few times, but I am not really interested in them.  In either case, I don't like messing with the little paper cups, I don't like trying to get the same amount of batter in each compartment, I don't like trying not to drip batter everywhere.  I don't like applying frosting.

 

There's a woman in my office who makes very good cupcakes.  I can eat those when she brings them, and  I will stick with baking cookies, which I *am* good at.

 

So the regular tins can go.  I'll keep the popover pan for the time being.  I haven't made those in a while, either, but I can visualize myself making them a lot sooner than I ever would cupcakes.
