‘Do you know the muffin man…’ I found myself humming it over and over as I leafed through Mad About Muffins. The mood created by Shelly Reeves Smith’s simple yet elegant illustrations and the recipes created by Dot Vartan will have you humming, too…" –Pat Novak, ucook.com 

Mad About Muffins includes the more than 100 super-simple recipes that Dot Vartan created and found. Also included are the richly colored and warmly detailed illustrations that Shelly Reeves Smith conceived as the perfect counterpart for the mouthwatering ingredients.

Dot launched Mad About Muffins after her favorite bakery closed and she was forced to find or create another source for her own muffin craving. That aficionado’s focus and enthusiasm is obvious throughout the book, as is her intention to make this simple and fulfilling food easy to create. Clear instructions, shortcuts, and cooking tips abound, making this one of the easiest ways to create everything from mini to extra-large muffins in less than an hour.
