Mini Herbed Muffins

One night while watching Masterchef, Darrius told me that he wanted to be one of the 3 men who do the tasting! How ambitious is that???!!! :lol: Well, I told him that, before he can be a taster, he must first learn to cook well and be a very good chef. Looks like cooking is in the genes :)

Darrius gets to cook in his school's kitchen (that was one of the reasons why we chose this school) twice a semester. Last week, he got to bake these little herbed muffins and brought some home which tasted pretty nice and he asked if we can make them at home. Therefore, I went to get some cheese and decided to bake a batch to try but I twisted the recipe a little as I did not have all the ingredients but they turned out great :)
