  • “These are really delicious tasting muffins!They are very, very rich and taste almost creamy. I made only one change to the recipe, which was to use 4 tsp of Irish Cream liqueur(which I had on hand)in place of the 2 tsp each of Irish Whiskey and coffee liqueur.I thought these tasted great and where very easy to prepare.Note:Check these early – mine got a hair too crisp on top at 25 minutes, so next time I may pull them out 5 minutes earlier.”

  • “Moist and tasty muffins! As I didn’t trust my gluten free flours, I used two eggs, half cup rice milk and 4 tablespoons olive oil. They turned out perfect in texture and flavor.Thanks for posting this recipe!Made for Comfort Cafe Snowqueen’s Round 2010.”

  • “Made for Comfort Cafe Event.I ran out of Irish cream so I used only Kahlua but these still turned out very nice. A nice breakie muffin with your favourite brew.”

  • “Excellent muffins. I made six large which were scoffed up in a hurry this morning.The coffee flavor comes thru clearly and the liqueurs were just a faint hint in the background.My son asked for the recipe and that’s always a very good sign.Made for the Comfort Cafe, a tag game.”
