Snickerdoodle Muffins...YUM

Hi Friends, I have a guest chef today! {Hee hee.} She is our very own Hannah Rose - my daughter, Katie's, best friend and my honorary daughter. She mentioned these muffins on facebook so I asked her to send me the recipe and a picture of her and the muffins. And like a good daughter, she did! {Thanks, sweet girl!} And boy do these look good! Sooooo...here's the recipe:

Hey Mama Jax!

Here's the recipe...

Snickerdoodle Muffins
2 sticks unsalted butter
1 cup sugar
2 tsp vanilla
2 eggs
¾ tsp baking soda
¾ tsp baking powder
¾ tsp cream of tarter
¾ tsp freshly grated nutmeg
1 and ¼ cup sour cream
2 and ¼ cups all purpose flour
+1 cup sugar and 2 TBSP cinnamon mixed together for rolling

1. Cream the butter and sugar until soft about 3 to 5 minutes. Add in the vanilla. Add in the eggs one at a time and mix until each is incorporated.

2. In a separate, mix together the flour, nutmeg, baking soda, and baking powder and cream of tarter.

3. Add the flour mixture and the sour cream alternately to the egg-butter mixture in the additions. Start with the flour and end with the flour. Scrape the bowl occasionally.

4. Using an ice cream scoop, scoop out muffin batter one at a time and drop into a shallow bowl filled with the cinnamon sugar mixture. Roll the muffin around in the mixture until it is covered completely in cinnamon sugar.. Place muffin into a greased muffin tin.. Depending on the size of your tins, you should get about 12 to 14 muffins. Bake them for approx. 20-22 minutes in a 350F oven or until they are golden brown.

I just had one...and they are awesome!!! Super light and fluffy.

Love ya!!
