These were a hit at a recent party. Hint: if you use egg substitute instead of real eggs, they will taste the same but come out denser.

These are incredible. You can probably leave out the pecans.

These were very good. They came out moist and sweet. The recipe here filled up exactly a 9-cup muffin tin with 3 1/4 inch diameter cups.
