"This allows the outside to cook up crispy while the inside stays chewy, filled with nooks and crannies. That makes them an amazing vessel for, say, garlic bread. Make sure you pull them apart with a fork instead of cutting clean with a knife. That way, your garlic butter mixture can soak into the uneven, spongey surface. Add cheese and it will melt into every crevice for a perfect bite every time."

Toast them first if you want extra crispiness. If you're in a nacho mood, toast your muffin halves and cut them into quarters.
