coffee cake muffins

A delicious muffin recipe from the Better Homes & Gardens Cookbook, 112th Edition. *To make a substitute for buttermilk, add 1 tablespoon of vinegar or lemon juice to 1 cup of milk and let stand for a few minutes; in this case, it was just half a cup, so I used half a tablespoon of lemon juice.
