Hi all, I plan on making chocolate chip pumpkin muffins tomorrow or Friday. This will be my first "solo" cooking attempt (though I will have a sighted family member who loves to cook close by for emergencies). I wonder if anyone has any tips for muffins? I have a recipe, one sent to this list in fact. I am referring to any tips for preparing, testing for doneness, and the like. Specifically, how do you pour batter into muffin tins? I tried pouring some cupcake batter a couple months ago, and it didn't go well (the batter went everywhere, and some even made it into the tin I was aiming for). However, that was using an ice cream scoop; this time, I plan to usone of my braille measuring spoons, since they have a sort of spout on the front which should make the batter easier to pour. If the batter turns out to be thick enough, I will probably just use a small, regular spoon and fill the tins that way. Will this work, or is there anything simpler I can do that you have found works well for filling muffin tins, and not losing half the batter to the top of the muffin pan, the table, and everywhere else it isn't supposed to go?
Thanks in advance for any help, and sorry that this message is so long and rambling. Perhaps I should have written it tomorrow when I am more awake, but I wanted to get it out there as soon as I could. -- Have a great day, Alex (msg sent from GMail website) [email protected]; http://www.facebook.com/mehgcap _______________________________________________ Cookinginthedark mailing list [email protected] http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark
