These were good but way too wet. Next time I would reduce the quantity of buttermilk. I forgot to add the cheese but sprinkled some on top when they were almost finished baking & they were still good. I agree with another reviewer re: the large quantity. It made 24 mini-muffins & 4 more regular muffins. (If you don't overfill the minis it would probably make 6 additional. Going to freeze the leftovers. They were good!
