The foil ones. What do I do with the paper? Is that just a separater? Do I leave the paper inside of the foil liner, or take it out and put the muffins directly in the foil?

OMG I'm not being stubborn! In my experience, you don't get the structure needed to produce a nice, tall muffin without using liners inside of a muffin pan. Even when using foil liners.

I thought that was the whole point of the foil ones?
Why use them over paper if that's not the case?

I too am mind blown by this. I thought it was because the paper ones were so thin and they fade when baked. The foil would allow more structure and prettier wrapping.
I'm ridiculously excited about how much faster i can bake more cupcakes now since I only have 2 cupcake tins but 3 cookie sheets.
I also have been using the foil ones on a cookie sheet forlikeever. They make perfect muffins. I'm not sure what you're doing wrong but I've never had problems using them without a muffin pan.
My muffins rise a little higher in the muffin tins than in the foil liners on a cookie sheet, but it's only noticible if you put muffins from the same batch right next to each other. Not enough to make a difference.
I vastly prefer using a muffin tin, but only because I'm clumsy and it's harder to spill them in a muffin tin. The only time I use the foil ones on a cookie sheet is when I have to bake a ton of muffins or cupcakes and don't have enough muffin tins.
Oh- it slightly affects baking time, but usually by less than a minute.
