Hot Cocoa, French Breakfast Puffs and a Spa Treatment

This is the perfect way to spend a lazy morning.

Make a new Pioneer Woman recipe. I highly recommend these:

French Breakfast Puffs:


Best if eaten with these:


Feel free to do a little hot chocolate body rub while you're at it.

And the recipe for the Puffs:

Ingredients

  • 3 cups Flour
  • 3 teaspoons Baking Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • ½ teaspoons Ground Nutmeg
  • 1 cup Sugar
  • ⅔ cups Shortening (Crisco)
  • 2 whole Eggs
  • 1 cup Milk
  • 1-½ cup Sugar
  • 3 teaspoons Cinnamon
  • 2 sticks Butter

Preparation Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease 12 muffin cups.

In a large bowl stir together flour, baking powder, salt, and nutmeg. Set aside.

In a different bowl, cream together 1 cup sugar and shortening. Then add eggs and mix again. Add flour mixture and milk alternately to creamed mixture, beating well after each addition.

Fill prepared muffin cups 2/3 full. Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes or until golden.

In a bowl, melt 2 sticks butter. In a separate bowl combine remaining sugar and cinnamon. Dip baked muffins in butter, coating thoroughly, then coat with cinnamon-sugar mixture.

These reminded me of cake donuts and they are wonderful when you freeze them and can get one out in the middle of the night and microwave it for exactly 22 seconds.

Oh.


Baby.
