Baked Mini Donut Muffins

For quite some time I have been planning to make these beauties after seeing it on several blogs around the net. These cuties are really yummy and very easy to make and resemble cinnamon sugar doughnut holes. The best part is these are baked and not deep fried.... Addition of nutmeg in the muffins was really great and it nicely complimented the cinnamon sugar coating..... really loved it and couldn’t stop munching them one after another ;).... These are very addictive and I must warn you that you will end up eating a lot!  Instead of mini muffin tins I baked these in my seashell pan and I got around 30 mini muffins.....
