Someone in another NG asked how to keep muffins or rolls warm while
transporting them to another location (pot luck, etc.)

My suggestion:

While the muffins are baking, heat a ceramic tile (Home Depot, Lowe's or
your local tile store, very cheap.) Or you could use a brick.

Place the muffins in a basket or serving dish, wrap with a clean
dishtowel to absorb moisture (so they won't get soggy.) Place in an
insulated picnic cooler with one or more heated tiles, wrapped in
newspaper so they won't melt the interior of the cooler where they
touch.

The tiles can also be used under a casserole dish on top of a trivet to
keep the dish warm at the table.
