This is a recipe I found online, but changed to make way better, lol. This makes 12 muffins, with enough batter left over to fill a small ramekin and bake alongside your muffin pan. Do try to use frozen cherries, dried just don't have the same flavor. I get mine at Trader Joe's (frozen ones, not very expensive, either). These muffins are so flavorful and moist, and my kids love them, too.
