Blueberry muffins

Today is my husbands birthday (happy birthday babe!) One of his favorite treats is muffins. He told me for his birthday breakfast he wanted muffins from a box. That's right, a box! I looked at him like he was crazy, said "no way" and set out to find a delicious blueberry muffin recipe. I looked at a lot of recipes and picked what I thought would be the best one. Although I wish these muffins were a little sweeter, they are definitely delicious and worth making! The yummy streusel on top really makes this muffin.
