Poppy Seed Muffins
These are wonderful muffins! I did change the recipe though, just to use up what we had in the house, but I omitted the almonds and almond extract, and instead grated 4 very small apples into the batter. The muffins were moist and tender, sweet and delicious! I am really looking forward to making them again, the way the recipe reads! Really good!

Mother's Applesauce Muffins
I make muffins almost every weekend for my family for breakfast during the week, school lunches, and snacks, and am always looking for new recipes. I had some unsweetened applesauce with mixed berry combo that I wanted to use up. I also used brown sugar in place of white, and 1/2 tsp of nutmeg in this recipe. The muffins smelled wonderful, and taste great! They are moist, with lots of apple flavour! Going to add this recipe to my file! Everyone likes them, including my toddler and husband!

Marzipan
Really good recipe, although I tweaked mine when I made it. Doubled all the ingredients, except the eggs, I still used 2. I whisked the egg whites until frothy, and then mixed those into the rest of the ingredients by hand, rather than using a blender. Once it was sticking together, I just kneaded it on my countertop like I was making bread, until it was of uniform texture and well mixed. To grind the almonds, I used my food processor, it worked really well. I really wanted a strong almond flavour for the recipe I was making the marzipan for, so I doubled the along extract...next time I will probably add a little more. All in all, this turned out really well, even with my changed. Had a smooth, firm texture, nice colour, and great taste! Will be making more this weekend for my Christmas baking projects! *****As a side note, please read the directions and ingredients before making this recipe! If you have issues with using raw eggs then use a different recipe! It's not fair to rate a recipe low if you do not like the ingredients called for, just pick another one to make, there are plenty of recipes to be found online!*****
