The muffins looked great in the pan, but then I totally butchered them trying to 'tip' them out. Any suggestions on how to tip them w/o burning your hands or mushing the pretty muffins? Could've used that in one of the photos (definitely love photos and I'm a regular baker!).
Diana, I use my thumb and index finger to pinch the tiniest edge of muffin paper and quickly tilt them. And yes, it hurts; my fingers are pretty tough, but I like to do this while they're HOT. I guess I should have demonstrated the method via photo, huh? Though I would have had to fake it while they're cool - it requires a lot of juggling to do something with one hand while you're taking a picture with the other (no, I don't have an assistant!) :) PJH
