Ingredients:
1/3 cup butter flavored Crisco
1/2 cup white sugar
1 egg
1 1/2 cups white flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/2 cup milk
Topping:
1/2 cup butter, melted
1/2 cup white sugar, combined with 1 teaspoon of cinnamon
Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease muffin pans or spray with vegetable spray.
Combine the Crisco, sugar and egg in a mixing bowl. Beat well. Mix the flour, powder, salt and nutmeg and add to the egg mixture. Pour in the milk and beat until blended and smooth. Fill the pans about 2/3 full. Bake 20 minutes or until lightly golden. Have topping read, butter melted and sugar/cinnamon mixed. As soon as the puffs are done cooking, gently drop into the butter then roll in the cinnamon/sugar mixture. Serve as soon as possible. To hold, I put them back into the muffin pans and top with foil and cloth to hold the heat in. To serve, place on decorative platter and pass with silver tongs.
