These are excellent and they come from Just a Taste. They're made with equal parts butter and vegetable oil. I omitted the streusel completely and added sweetened dried tart cherries and almond extract. I made just half the recipe and got nine standard size ones, so the full batch will yield 18. They baked in exactly 15 minutes. They needed a lot more salt. I used 3/8 t. instead of just 1/8 t. They're not as moist the next day but that's alright.
I grade them an A.
CHOCOLATE VERSION
I made this version over a month later using the same recipe I used above (leaving out the streusel.) I omitted three tablespoons of flour and replaced it with three tablespoons of unsweetened cocoa. I added 1/2 c. mini semisweet chocolate chips, which was a little too much. The texture of these are different, more like all the other chocolate muffin recipes I've tried. They're a little dry the next day but not quite as dry as other recipes I've made. Perhaps I'll leave out one tablespoon of cocoa next time and use just two.
