I know a little Cupboard
With a teeny tiny key,
And there’s a jar of Lollypops
For me, me, me.
It has a little shelf, my dear,
As dark as dark can be,
And there’s a dish of Banbury Cakes
For me, me, me.
I have a small fat grandmamma,
With a very slippery knee,
And she’s Keeper of the Cupboard,
With a key, key, key.
And when I’m very good, my dear,
As good as good can be,
There’s Chocolate Cup Cakes, and Lollypops
For me, me, me.
-- A Cute Dessert Poem by Walter De La Mare
I love this poem and it reminds me of cute muffins & cupcakes with a big cup of tea.
Today I am going to share a simple recipe of Chocolate Muffin. I have used walnuts as a combination but you can try it with any other dry fruit or candy.
