For an extra burst of lemon flavor, consider making a simple glaze by whisking together powdered sugar with a tablespoon or two of lemon juice, and drizzling over the cooled muffins. Ensure your butter is cooled slightly before adding it to the sugar to prevent cooking the egg when it's added. To keep muffins moist, store them in an airtight container at room temperature.
