I've got the flu. Again. On Friday I thought my wooziness was due to the fact that my eyes have to get used to the new glasses, but when I woke up with all slimed up on Saturday it was clear that I'm really ill again.
Why is it that I always get ill during term paper time? I hate that.
The good thing about not being able to walk very far is that we stayed in all weekend, cuddling and baking muffins.

From left to right: chocolate-caramel muffin, After Eight muffin, Milchschnitte muffin.
The chocolate-caramel muffins were bastards. They refused to let go of the muffin tray and held on for dear life, so we could only get them out of there by decapitating them. That's they ended up looking like Frankenstein's muffins. They taste awesome nontheless.
After Eight muffins

This one also could not be persuaded to part from the tray.
We used a recipe found on the Muffin Paradies:
250g flour
90g sugar
80g fat - oil or butter.
250 ml buttermilk - although normal milk also works.
1 egg
8TS of cocoa
2TS of baking powder
200g After Eight mints.
You quarter the mints, then mix everything but the flour and the baking powder, then add the baking powder and the flour, then the dinner mints, then bake the muffins at 180C for 25min.
Frankenstein's muffin

We used
200g flour
80g sugar
80ml oil
120ml milk
1 egg
5TS of cocoa
2TS of baking powder
8 quartered caramells
100g chocolate.
8 marshmallows.
Again, we mixed the sugar, the oil, the milk, the cocoa, and the egg, then added the flour and the baking powder, and then the chocolate and the caramell and baked the buggers for 25min at 180C.
What looks like ruptured pustules in the picture are the marshmallows we added halfway through.
I love them, even though they're really not aesthetically pleasing - and they are really too sweet. I wonder whether you need the sugar at all.
Milchschnitte Muffins

We used
260g flour
90g sugar
250ml milk
100g oil or butter
1 egg
2TS baking powder
5 Milchschnitten
We mixed the sugar, milk, oil, egg, then stirred the Milchschnitten filling into the mixture until the mixture was foamy. Then we added the flour and the brown cookie-ish parts of the Milchschnitte and baked the mixture at 180 for 25 min. I don't like them, Crocky thinks they're delicious.
Nom nom nom.
