LEMON POPPY SEED MUFFINS

Lemon Poppy Seed Muffins image

Bursting with poppy seeds, these luscious muffins from Donna Gonda of North Canton, Ohio are filled and drizzled with lots of lemony flavor. They're great with coffee or tea and couldn't be much easier to whip up. TIP: For a special after-school treat, Donna bakes them in mini muffin pans and serves with hot chocolate.
