French Breakfast Puffs

What a great way to start the day!  I made these French Breakfast Puffs using the recipe on Kara's Kitchen Creations.  By the end of breakfast, they were almost gone and finished a few hours later by the girls.  Needless to say, they tasted great especially when you eat them warm.  As a variation, I might toss some walnuts or pecans next time.

1/4 tsp nutmeg

4)  While still warm, roll the top of the puffs in melted butter, then in cinnamon sugar mixture.

If you are rolling the entire muffin in butter, you will need about 1/3 cup, and more cinnamon sugar of course.
