it's a snap. { savoury ham and cheese muffins }

Oh how I missed the rain and thunderstorms (heart)

These muffins were based in a recipe I found here during one of my many strolls through the world of cooking blogs. Made them last tuesday for an alternative São João party here in Munich ;)

Easy and quick to whip up... (they seem actually perfect for a lazy sunday evening) you should eat them while still warm!
