That recipe sounds delicious!!
Thank you so much for posting!!!

Don't you love how lemonade concentrate can be used for so many different recipes?

I've copied and pasted this one.
Might even make it for a potluck we're going to this
weekend. Sounds so good!

Since the recipe says it makes 12, is that 12 regular sized or extra large muffins?

Hi jkath...yes I do love how you can use lemonade in recipes...and I used my regular size muffin tins. You could probably use the bigger ones too, but wouldn't get as many...maybe 6. Those are using the Texas muffin tins. Bet you could even make some mini muffins if you wanted...I've done other muffin recipes in them (tart pans).
