Tips:

Just be sure to thaw them before using. - Use a sharp knife to chop the cranberries. This will help to prevent them from becoming mushy in the muffins. - Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the muffins tough. - Fill the muffin cups only about 2/3 full. This will allow the muffins to rise properly. - Bake the muffins until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. - Let the muffins cool in the pan for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
