These are adorable and delicious. They remind me a bit of donut holes. Instead of coating them in the cinnamon sugar, you could fold in about 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips right before baking. You can also make these as regular sized muffins...bake those for 17-20 minutes at the same temperature. Recipe adapted from : Sallysbakingaddiction.com

I love to bake and to try out new recipes! I'm always on the lookout for simple dinners for busy weeknights. A lot of the recipes I post on here are ones I've found on Pinterest or from different bloggers, and that I've tried and really enjoyed, but I always reference to where I got the recipe from in the recipe description and the pictures are my own. If there's no source listed, then it's a rare recipe that I came up with. I have two wonderful kids and I hope to pass on my love of cooking and baking to them.
