Simple Butter Muffin

It's been a long time since I have written my last blog. Just too busy, and lazy, no excuse. LOL. I have taken and baked quite a number of sweets, but just lazy to blog about it. Now that everything is settled, I would have more time to blog about it, I hope. >.< This is just a basic butter muffin that I have used pancake flour to make instead of cake flour or all-purpose flour. Pancake flour gives another texture to the cakes, it is more course and little to the dry side, but the taste is very special. Cannot really pin point what's the 'special-ness', but just try it one day, you will know that you are in love with it! =P
