I gave this a 4 star rating yesterday, but I am going to rerate it and give it 5 stars!! The longer they sat, the better they got! EVERYONE loves them!! I will still point out that you don't need 2 c. of the cinnamon/sugar mixture...even tho this makes a huge batch of muffins...also I thought maybe the picture looked like it had powdered sugar for a topping instead of granulated sugar. No matter...these are a keeper!! Thanks for a great fall recipe!
