Sour Cream Coffee Cake Muffins

Satisfaction: I'm guessing here, but I'd say a 10!

Sour cream in anything sweet always sounded (oxy)moronic to me, as does the idea that coffee cake is--well--not coffee in your cake. Playing off of the crazy menus that we've all seen vying for our attention in recent years, The New Yorker published an article earlier this year about the zany types of breakfast foods you can order in...well, nowhere, really, but it's worth a thought. Among the menu items are a series of cake-in-drink selections, including a bagel at the bottom of your coffee and whoopee pies stuffed with cappuccino. Who says you can't have your cake and drink it too?
For the recipe (for deliciously moist sour cream coffee cake muffins, not the drinks-in-cakes), look beneath the cut!
