Delectable Mini Donut Muffins

*This recipe is from here on Allrecipes.com.  Even though it is just a muffin recipe, it is amazing how much these donut muffins really do taste like donuts - only better!!  WARNING:  these are so delicious, you might find it hard to stop eating them!!*

Makes about 24.

1/2 cup raw sugar
1/4 cup margarine (or butter), melted
3/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 cup milk
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup butter, melted  [I found I needed more than this]
1/2 cup raw sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease 24 mini-muffin cups.
2. Mix 1/2 cup sugar, 1/4 cup butter, and nutmeg in a large bowl. Stir in the milk, then mix in the baking powder and flour until just combined. Fill the prepared mini muffin cups about half full.
3. Bake in the preheated oven until the tops are lightly golden, 15 to 20 minutes.
4. While muffins are baking, place 1/4 cup of melted butter in a bowl. In a separate bowl, mix together 1/2 cup of sugar with the cinnamon. Remove muffins from their cups, dip each muffin in the melted butter, and roll in the sugar-cinnamon mixture. Let cool and serve.

Hopefully they are as easy as they look! And they sound so yum they will have to be my next cooking adventure! (too bad I didn't get to taste test any last week =) )

They tasted GREAT, just like donuts and nothing like muffins at all. I will certainly be giving them ago. I'm making those cheese puffs this afternoon and will let you know how they turn out. I will post some photos:)
