Donut Muffins

I have tried to make donuts since I have lived here. I had phoned Mom for her recipe and any tips she could give me, since I’ve never perfected the art of deep fat frying, all to no avail … after hours of preparation, they didn’t become real donuts at all! So, when I came across this recipe for Donut Muffins the other day, I was anxious to give it a try and see if they actually tasted like donuts. They were delicious … if not quite exactly like a real donut. They have a dry cake-like consistency with a crunchy cinamon-sugar coating and they taste great with coffee or chocolate.
