Snickerdoodle Doughnut muffins

These are really very tasty, a nice small treat.  The inside is nice a fluffy while the top has a nice crunch.  I made these for work and everyone loved them.  I think I will add these to the treats I made during the Christmas Holidays.  Would be a nice treat to go with breakfast.

Snickerdoodle Donut Muffins


Ingredients
3/4 Cup Sugar
1/2 Cup Butter (melted)
1/2 teaspoon Pure Vanilla Extract
3/4 Cup Milk (I used 1/2 cup half n hald and 1/4 cup water)
1 1/2 Cups All-Purpose Flour 
1/4 tsp Ground Nutmeg (fresh)
1/4 teaspoon Ground Cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon Cream of Tartar (optional)
1 1/2 teaspoons Baking Powder

For dipping your donut muffins, prepare the following:

In a small bowl,
Melt 1/2 cup butter
In a small bowl mix,

1/2 cup Sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons Ground Cinnamon 
     


     
     

Directions
Preheat oven to 350 Degrees F.  Spray mini muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray.  In a large bowl, mix melted butter, sugar and vanilla - mix until smooth. Next pour milk over mixture, set aside, do not mix.  In a medium size bowl, mix the remaining dry ingredients (flour, baking powder, cinnamon, cream of tartar and nutmeg).  Pour your dry ingredients over the butter/sugar/vanilla/milk mixture -and mix until just blended.  Using a spoon or a scooper, fill each muffin 3/4 full.   Place in oven on middle rack and bake 18-20 minutes, until lightly golden brown.  Remove from oven.  Take each donut muffin, and while they are still warm (not too hot), dip them completely in melted butter and roll them in cinnamon sugar mixture. Place on wax paper to cool.  Enjoy them warm or cold.

Thanks for stopping by, give these a try think you'll really enjoy them.  Have a wonderful day and Always Remember to Find the Time to Do All the Things you love.
