4oz butter
  4 oz sugar (granulated)
  2 eggs
  1/4 pint milk
  14 strawberries, fresh if possible
  6oz self raising flour
  1 teasp baking powder
A teasp of good strawberry jam, per muffin

• Pre heat oven to 350F, 180C, Gas Mark 4
  

• Grease a muffin tin or fill with paper liners.

• Cream the butter and sugar together in a large bowl.
  

• Beat in the eggs, one at a time, and then add the milk.

• Chop the strawberries up into small chunks,

• then stir them carefully into the cake mix, try not to break or mush fruit.
  

• Sift the flour and baking powder into the bowl, then fold in.
  

• Be careful not to mix to much.

Now this is the secret bit. Fill your muffin cases only half full,then add the teaspoon of good strawberry jam, then add some more of the muffin mix till 2/3 full.

Remember to leave room for the muffins to rise.

• Bake until the muffins begin to turn brown, usually 25 - 30 mins.

"A Mother is like a flower
On a sunny summer day.
You'd pick her in a minute
If you could have your way.

A Mother is like the sunshine;
She warms your heart each day
And makes you feel like smiling.
It's just her special way."
