I don't know if these are like Jason's...never had them but this recipe is one of my favorites. I take my muffins out a couple of min. early so they are moister. I have never made mini muffins with this recipe but I'm sure they would be fine just adjust baking time....I'd say check them in 10 min and go from there.
