Really? I love DD's, but their muffins aren't the best, IMO.

Agree abou Stabucks being pretty good.

I am not sure what they taste like, but they looked very good at Nordstrom coffee shop. They are huge.

Ah Jordan Marsh muffins - bursting with blueberries and moist cake and topped with a crunchy muffin top with plenty of sugar. Here's a Marian Burros recipe that appeared in the Boston Globe when Jordan Marsh went out of business. They don't exactly taste like the real thing but they're pretty close. Just make sure not to cover them until the second day;they will be too moist. Also, they are fairly sugary, more cake-like than bread-like. Enjoy.

1/2 cup butter
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 eggs
2 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 cup milk
2 cups blueberries, washed, drained, dried (pat them dry) and picked over
3 teaspoons sugar (for top of muffins)

1. Cream the butter and 1 1/2 sugar until light.
2. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
3. Sift together flour, salt, baking powder and add to the creamed mixture alternately with the milk
4. Crush 1/2 cup blueberries with a fork and mix into the batter. Fold in remaining whole blueberries.
5. Grease 12 large muffin cups and fill with batter. Sprinkle the 3 teaspoons of sugar over the top of the muffins and bake at 375 for 30 minutes.
6. Cool 30 minutes before removing. Store, uncovered, or the muffins will be too moist the second day. (Can be covered at the end of the second day).


CORRECTION: The amount of sugar should be 1 1/4 cups for the batter plus 3 teaspoons for top of muffins. Sorry for the error. But, seriously, make these muffins.

Lol! I was going to say the same thing, but I thought I might get attacked by the food snobs.


Who cares what the DCUM crazies think? Starbucks blueberry muffins are yummy.

Flour, milk, butter, sugar, salt, baking soda, eggs, blueberries. 25 min later, really yummy muffins......at half or less the price of the bought ones, not including the gas and inconvenience.

Seriously, get off your butt and MAKE your own food.

Agree, these are the best. No contest. They are simple to make and I can dig up and post the recipe but it's likely all over the web by now.
