REVIEWS:

I have been searching for a recipe to use up some leftover coconut and pecans that i had from making christmas cookies when I stumbled upon this recipe. I have to say these are by far the BEST muffins I have ever made and maybe have ever eaten. They are sweet and delicious and moist and just so good. The only thing I might change next time is also add some cinnamon and maybe ground ginger just for some added flavor. But other than that they are amazing!!!!!!

I cooked the recipe just like it said except no coconut. I cooked them for 25 minutes. They were over done and the recipe did not tell you what kind of muffin pans to use. I used my 2 inch pans.
If using a 2 inch muffin pan cook for 15 to 17 minutes and they are done and great!!!!! I wish I had cooked the first twelve for this amount of time too!!!!
