Stir in the rest of the blue berry puree.  Spray a silicone lace mold with cooking oil then use paper towel to get off as much oil as possible leaving only a thin coat.<br \/>\n  Using a spatula spread the blueberry mixture over the mold making sure all the lace is filled with mixture.  Place a little bit of mixture on the edge so you can use that to test the dryness of your lace.  Place in a dehydrator at 70C (158 degrees Fahrenheit) for 4 hours.  While hot and flexible carefully remove from the mold.  Place on a sheet of non-stick baking paper and return to the dehydrator at 60C (140 degrees Fahrenheit) for 15 hours to make it crisp.  Store in an airtight container or it will absorb moisture form the air and become soft.<\/p>\n<h4>White chocolate muffins recipe<\/h4>\n<p>2 eggs<br \/>\n100g (3.53 ounces) sugar<br \/>\n150g (5.29 ounces) white chocolate, melted<br \/>\n75g (2.65 ounces) butter, melted<br \/>\n80g (2.82 ounces) yoghurt<br \/>\n80g (2.82 ounces) cream<br \/>\n210g (7.41 ounces) flour<br \/>\n16g (0.56 ounces) baking powder<br \/>\nWhisk together the eggs and sugar.  Add the chocolate, butter, yoghurt and cream and mix well.  Sift in the flour and baking powder and mix until just combined.<\/p>\n<h4>Vanilla Cream<\/h4>\n<p>250g (8.82 ounces) milk<br \/>\n70g (2.47 ounces) sugar<br \/>\n2 eggs<br \/>\n35g (1.23 ounces) cornflour<br \/>\n1\/2 vanilla bean<br \/>\nCombine all the ingredients and stir over heat until it thickens.  Continue to heat for a minute and then leave to cool.<\/p>\n<p>To serve you will need a fresh blueberry rolled in edible glitter and an edible purple flower.<\/p>\n \n<h4 align=center>My Cookbook<\/h4>\n<p align=center>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.howtocookthat.net\/public_html\/cook-crazy-sweet-creations-cookbook-ann-reardon\/\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"40%\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howtocookthat.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/03\/hardcover-book-mockup-of-a-woman-reading-3409-el1.png\" alt=\"ann reardon crazy sweet creations cookbook\" title=\"Crazy Sweet Creations Cookbook\" style=\"opacity: 0.8; -moz-opacity: 0.8;\" class=\"fade\" \/><\/a>\n<\/br>\nStores that sell my book listed by country:  \n<a href=\"http:\/\/bit.ly\/ARcookbook\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/bit.ly\/ARcookbook<\/a>\n<\/br>\nAll recipe quantities in the book are in grams, ounces and cups.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<a href=\"https:\/\/www.howtocookthat.net\/public_html\/ultimate-blueberry-muffins\/\"><img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/www.howtocookthat.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/P1255559-150x150.jpg\" class=\"alignleft tfe wp-post-image\" alt=\"the best blueberry muffins\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.howtocookthat.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/P1255559-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.howtocookthat.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/P1255559-100x100.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.howtocookthat.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/P1255559-scaled-1200x1200-cropped.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.howtocookthat.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/P1255559-400x400.jpg 400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" data-wp-pid=\"137011\" \/><\/a><p>&nbsp; Easy The easiest option is to buy blueberry muffins from the store.
