I knew you were going to say that! Fortunately (or UNfortunately) most of my
quilting buddies won't think twice about the extra calories. I mean, they
can devour 2 loaves of my Cheesy Bread without taking a breath......
I AM looking forward to making this recipe. I WILL make sure my insurance is
up to date.......

Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the kitchen. You roll
the muffin around in the butter, and then I use a small measuring
spoon to dust the uncovered parts until that saturated little devil is
covered with cinnamon. Now maybe you will have to rethink your
approach of not worrying about calories, at your quilting get
together. Lois won't make them just for me as she fears I wouldn't be
able to fit into the casket, if I ate the whole batch myself. You are
forewarned.

They have been around for a long time but that
tells you how good they are! They are a Betty
Crocker standard. I have found that a lot of the
old basics that get requested come from that
simple classic book. (just avoid some of the
70's-80's versions where they sub bisquick in
some of the classic real recipes)
I wonder if you were to use less butter and just
do the tops with the 'topping' and maybe fill
just a tad with a sugar free jelly if they wouldn't
still be greatand a little less fat? Egg beaters
would probably help too. The shortening sub is good too.
If someone were to make them for me I'd probably
inhale them anyway around.

I made those once -- yummy! May not have been the exact recipe, but it
is in one of my Betty Crocker cookbooks.

It very well could be a variation of that recipe. She has had this
hand written 3" x 5" recipe card, written in pencil, for as long as
she can remember, and she is not sure where she first came upon the
recipe. It has evolved as one of her own with the passage of time, and
slight variation, of the substitution of vegetable oil for
shortening, in the original. Wherever it came from it is a good one.
