9. Cinnamoffins

7th December 2013, Strängnäs

One of my oldest friends is that domestic goddess I will most likely never be. Always baking and it somehow always tastes great and looks pretty. Whilst I can only make brownies, as long as they don't have to look particularly inviting - the woman is fricking Betty Crocker.

Having known her for 22 years and counting (this is not because we're old. Or that old at least) I have kept hearing about this cinnamon bun and muffin hybrid she makes - without actually having tried them. So, after having had her hold my hair back during a very unfortunate trip to Bulgaria in 2004, having seen her had two lovely baby girls and having been a bride's maid at her wedding, but not having tried the cinnamoffins - I demanded them on my last visit.

Showing up at her and her husband's (oh my God, he's your husband now!) very grown up new house with a less than grown up hangover from the night before, I am served some much needed coffee and long sought after cinnamoffins. And boy were they amazing. Two of my best things combined in one and served on a silver platter.

Silver platter and all!

Two of my loveliest girls.
 

Sometimes things are just so good you have to stuff your entire little mouth full of them!
