I'm confused! Is muffin like cupcake? Is cupcake like cake? Are you?
I just found muffins are less sweet compared to cupcakes (go have a look at the sugar the two recipes require) Muffins are also heavier where as cupcakes which are actually cakes baked in cups are much lighter and fluffier.
Oh, those you see with icing and sweet and cute decorative stuff on are usually cupcakes not muffins.
Hmm ... I have sweet tooth. So ... I prefer cupcakes but I love the cranberries though. My friend and her family preferred muffins so they were happy when I made these for them. I baked 2 batches at one go and I only kept 8 muffins! LOL.
