Er... how does that work?

I have found a recipe which has as its description: "Everyone knows the tops are the best part of the muffin! This recipe is for the tops only."

Um... how do you make muffin tops without making the rest of the muffin? And which American sitcom was it where the main characters made a huge batch of muffins, decided they only wanted to eat the tops, so donated their cut-off muffin bottoms or "stalks" to a homeless shelter - and the homeless people rejected them because they were muffin bottoms?

Cake mix is actually a good base for other cakes and things-I've got a whole cookbook dedicated to doctored cake mixes, and a couple of other recipes of my own.

Hmm. It's just that most heavily processed foods are a bit nightmarish when you have food allergies/intolerances. Vegan cake mix exists, as does allergy-free cake mix, but they are terribly expensive. Also, I am not a big fan of wheat-free or gluten-free stuff, and don't see the point of spending more money on a cake mix than it would cost to buy the ingredients and make it myself.
