Christmas Muffins

There muffins can be made big or small but men and boys alike seem to love the mini muffins best. I have fond memeories of my brother popping theses things in his mouth by the dozens. They are yummy muffins rolled in melted butter and then in a sugar and cinnamon mixture. Even though I make these during the holidays they are delicious any time of year. I literally have men beg me to make theses things for them.
The muffins make great give away treats during the holidays as well as a yummy party treat. Don't ever bother making a single recipe or you will regret it!
