I'm not sure what went wrong, but these muffin cakes were not good. They were dense and flavorless.

These muffin cakes were a total disaster. They didn't rise properly and they were burnt on the bottom.

These were just okay. I think I would have liked them better if I had used fresh pineapple instead of canned.

I found that the muffin cakes were a bit dry. I think I should have added a little more butter to the batter.

These were a bit too sweet for my taste, but my kids loved them.

I added a little bit of cinnamon to the batter and it gave the muffin cakes a really nice flavor.
