A delicious alternative to ordinary muffins, this recipe contains a couple of "secret ingredients."

I see the secret, RUM! I remember a long time ago our family would go to a German/American Restaurant. They first served you a giant basket of several different kinds of hot warm rolls and butter. The one thing they did make that I can't find that comes close to is their Schnitzel. It was so amazing. Thanks for sharing this :)
