lemon-iced blueberry muffins and the winner is...

Muffins!

I don't know. I think muffins can suck sometimes. A lot of times. I rarely make them. 

But I read somewhere about how to nail that muffin texture I was looking for.

It had to do with really thick batter. So I nixed any ideas I had about adding lemon juice to my batter and stuck with zest. 

And tangy Greek yogurt.

And lots of blueberries.

But! I have to interrupt my muffin talk with a side note.

A cookie note.

Toni won the photo contest!

I've been craving toasted marshmallow, so I worked it right into this cookie candy family I'm building.

First, it was coconut crunch cookie candy.

Then, a few days ago -- Biscoff & chocolate.

Now, s'mores!

Big pillows of toasted marshmallow.

Lots of melty chocolate chips.

All on one big crispy-crunchy, buttery cookie.

This definitely satisfied my craving.

cookie candy + contest!

It's craziness around here and it's because of this cookie candy.

I've been on a major cookie-baking marathon lately.

Now I really want to pass on the insanity.

So I'm having a contest. 

This cookie candy is what made me want to do a bit of a bake-off.

It's one giant buttery, crunchy oat cookie.

Well -- part cookie, part candy bar.
