BLUEBERRY MUFFINS 1/2 c. butter or margarine (room temperature) 1 c. sugar 2 large eggs 1 tsp. vanilla 2 tsp. baking powder 1/4 tsp. salt 2 1/2 c. fresh blueberries or 12 oz. bag frozen blueberries (not thawed) 2 c. flour 1/2 c. milk Heat oven to 375 degrees.

Add sugar; beat until pale and fluffy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition. Beat in vanilla, baking powder and salt. If using fresh blueberries, mash 1/2 cup and stir into the batter. With a rubber spatula, fold half the flour, then half the milk into the batter; repeat with remaining flour and milk. Fold in remaining fresh blueberries or all the frozen. Spoon batter into the muffin cups. Bake 25 to 30 minutes until golden brown.
