Danish Rum Raisin Muffins image

From The Joy of Muffins - The International Muffin Cook Book. This is what the intro says for this recipe. Rum-flavored desserts became popular in Denmark because of the Danish colonies in the West Indies. Danish rum-raisin muffins are inspired by romfromage and rombudding, rum cream and rum pudding. They are delicious for tea....

I'm not a huge fan of rum raisin, but I still really enjoyed these muffins. They're so moist and flavorful. I'll definitely be making them again.

The muffins were a complete disaster! They were so dry and crumbly, I couldn't even eat them. I'm not sure what went wrong.

These muffins were a bit too dense for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try using a different recipe next time.

The muffins were a bit dry, but the flavor was good. I think I'll try adding some more butter or oil next time.

These muffins were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

These Danish Rum Raisin Muffins were a hit! They were moist and flavorful, with just the right amount of sweetness. The rum raisin filling was a nice touch, and the muffins had a lovely golden brown crust. I'll definitely be making these again.
