My mom made these for us for a treat, usually on a Saturday or a Sunday morning. I loved them; and they're not like todays muffins that are really cake. These are absolutely delishous and very good with eggs and bacon or just with a cup of cocoa. I make them for my kids now...and when I am a stay at home mom, I make them in the mornings before they go to school or work. We all love 'em!
