Cinnamon Breakfast Puffs

I needed something to take to a meeting where 35 hungry girls would be. This seemed perfect. The recipe is for regular muffins but I made them into bite size mini ones.

1/3 cup shortening
1/2 cup sugar
1 egg
1 1/2 cup flour
1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. nutmeg
1/2 cup milk
6 Tbsp. melted butter
1/2 cup sugar
1 or more tsp. cinnamon

Cream shortening, 1/2 cup sugar and egg in bowl until light and fluffy. Add mixture of flour, baking powder, salt and milk, mixing well after each addition. Fill greased muffin cups 2/3 full. Bake at 350 for 20-25 min. Roll each hot muffin in melted butter. Coat with mixture of sugar and cinnamon. Makes 12 muffins.

Looks SO good! I'll have to try them.

And! Those are the plates that I grew up with! When I went to college, my mom gave me two of them and I still use them and love them. I wish I had a whole set!
