As the weather turns cooler, comfort foods are in order. These muffins are good on their own as a breakfast muffin. But frosting them with white chocolate cream cheese frosting makes them even better as a dessert muffin. I used jumbo red flame raisins and a Ghiradelli white chocolate bar*, chopped in the muffin, but you could also use Craisins or chocolate chips. Most, flavorful and not spicy, these muffins are a treat and freeze beautifully.
Note: Do not substitute white chocolate chips for the chopped bar, as the ingredients are not the same. Read the label and you will see that the bar is better quality.

Hi Judy, I don't remember how or when I stumbled across your blog, but I have it bookmarked now. I love reading your recipes. I've only tried the one bowl banana nut cupcakes, but they were really good. And these overnight oatmeal ones look amazing. Thanks for all the great baking ideas!
These look so good. We love muffins and make them often. Thanks.
