Blueberry Muffin Tops w/ a Buttery Lemon Glaze

A yummy way to start your morning, or your afternoon, or evening. We ordered take out the other night and my little guy wanted nothing to do with it because I had just pulled these bits of awesomeness out of the oven! He kept asking for "one more cookie."

Preheat oven to 400 degrees

1 Betty Crocker Blueberry Muffin Mix

1/4 cup oil

2 eggs

1/4 cup milk

Drop dough by heaping tablespoonfuls on a greased cookie sheet about 5 in apart. I only get 5 or 6 per sheet. The dough is thick. Bake for 8-9 minutes until slightly golden.

For the glaze:

1/2 stick(1/4 cup) butter, softened

1 1/2 cups powdered sugar

Zest of one lemon

1-2 tablespoons milk

1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice

Whip the butter. Then add your powdered sugar alittle at a time while constantly mixing. Add the lemon zest. Then slowly start adding the milk while still mixing to get to a slightly thinned consistancy. Add the lemon juice. The glaze should be thick enough to completely coat the back of a spoon, but be able to drizzle and spread evenly over muffin tops.
