Ingredients:

  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2/3 cup shortening
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 1/2 lb (2 sticks) butter
  • 1 1/2 cups sugar

Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease 12 muffin cups.
  2. In a large bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, salt and nutmeg. Set aside.
  3. In a separate large bowl, cream together the sugar and shortening. Add the eggs and mix again. Alternate adding one-third of the flour mixture and one-third of the milk to the creamed mixture, beating well after each addition.
  4. Fill the muffin cups two-thirds full. Bake until golden, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove the muffins from the pan and set aside.
  5. To make the coating, melt the butter in a bowl or glass pan. In a separate container, combine the sugar and cinnamon.
  6. Dip the warm muffins in the butter, coating thoroughly.
  7. Then roll in the cinnamon-sugar mixture. Don't be afraid to really coat 'em up. Let the kids help!
  8. Cook Notes: Cinnamony-sweet perfection! The deliciousness of these beauties is not to be underestimated.Helpful Hint: After cooling completely, puffs can be frozen in plastic bags and reheated later. They're in the reheats beautifully section of my life.
