My daughter Courtney and I hosted a bridal shower last night for our good friend Sam so I decided to make these muffins since she was going to be surrounded by friends at the shower.  They were delicious.

muffins

1/2 cup butter, softened

1 cups sugar

1 egg

1 teaspoon vanilla

1 cup buttermilk

2 cups flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

cinnamon and sugar mixture

1/3 cup sugar

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1  Preheat oven to 350.  Line muffin pan with paper liners.

2  Cream butter, sugar, vanilla and egg together.  Add  milk, flour and baking soda.  Do not over mix, mix just until combined.

3  Mix together sugar and cinnamon in separate bowl.

4  Fill each muffin cup with half the batter, sprinkle with cinnamon/sugar, fill with remaining batter to fill each cup to almost the top then sprinkle with remaining cinnamon/sugar.

5  Bake 20 – 25 minutes or until toothpick inserted in batter comes out clean.
