My baking buddy "I" given a box of chocolate muffins to me and within 1 days, the 8 muffins were finished. Dear daughter ate it and her 1st comment was she dun quite like it cos the cake texture is too soft, "I prefer not so soft cake" she said. However, after she finished one, I saw her taking another one, I asked her why she is taking another one since she dun quite like it. She answered me that she changed her mind and love it now. Then after that, she took another one more again but she can only finished half, so in total she ate 2 1/2 muffins at one go!
So of course, how can I not asking for the recipe lol.
