French Breakfast Puffs-



This recipe is from my old Betty Crocker cookbook.  These are delicious, and my family loves them (especially the kids).  Warning-They aren't health food!  :o)

1/3 cup shortening (lard)
1/2 cup sugar
1 egg
1 1/2 cups flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 cup butter, melted

Heat oven to 350.  Grease 12 muffin cups.  Mix thoroughly shortening, 1/2 cup sugar and egg.  Stir in flour, baking powder, salt and nutmeg alternately with milk.
Fill muffin cups 2/3 full.  Bake 20-25 minutes.  Mix 1/2 cup sugar and the cinnamon.  Immediately after baking, roll puffs in milted butter, then in the cinnamon-sugar mixture.  Serve hot.
