Blueberry Muffins

This is it - I found it - the perfect blueberry muffin recipe! It's called Blueberry Cream Muffins and I found it on allrecipes.com. I had made this years ago and even reviewed it on their site but had forgotten about it for some reason. I had an abundance of blueberries and wanted to again try making muffins. This recipe has 2 whole cups of sour cream in it, which sounds like a lot but the results are excellent. This muffin is sweet and cakelike and I sprinkled the tops with sparkling sugar before I baked them. The sugar really adds a crunch to the top. And check out the domed top on these babies! No flat tops! Right on! They don't expand much - I filled the muffin papers right to the top with batter - they just go straight up. I highly recommend these muffins. Maybe next time I will try the same recipe with raspberries or blackberries. Enjoy!

I used a lot of sparkling sugar - on cookies & muffins mostly. I found TWO of these containers on Amazon for about $22. That's about 7 pouds worth of sparkling sugar! One little container in the store cost about $4 or $5. Amazon also sells this in many different colors.

Not the greatest photo. I have a hard time photographing at night with low light. And the flash just ruins the whole look so I try and compromise with lamps or other lights....and well, I'm just not good at it. Anyway, the texture of these muffins is delightful. Wish you could taste one. I hate to say this, but it's kind of like the texture of Costco blueberry muffins. Cakelike & sweet. I like that.
