GOOD MUFFINS FOR TOMOR-

Mullins are not really difficult to
make successfully. The whole secret
lies in having :1 good recipe.
The easiest way to make mufi‘ins
is to sift the dry ingredients. then
slowly stir in tho milk and eggs,
provinuély mixed—the whites beaten
still and added last. if you want—-
and then the melted butter or other:
shortening. if mumns are madein
this way they should be thoroughly
stirred and mixed before being

them while they are still warm. One
ol’ their characteristics and good-

berries—huekleberrles or black.
berries are excellent—that have been

Here is a good. plain muffin recipe.
