About

Better-Than-The-Box Blueberry Muffins has one goal; take the ordinary box muffin mix and make it something truly special. So instead of water (or milk), Better-Than-The-Box Blueberry Muffins uses half-and-half to make the texture even more tender and creamy. Then, when the muffins are fresh out of the oven and already enticing with their summery-sweet berries and cake sweetness, each one is dipped in rich butter and cinnamon-sugar. That's certainly the best way to make box mixes better!
