Snickerdoodle Muffins

After the spicy spicy meal which resulted in severed taste buds for myself (I am not sure Wayne had any prior to the meal with his latest Tabasco obsession), I decided to make us a desert. I went for something new that I had "Stumbled Upon" using the addicting stumbleupon.com that Tracy got me hooked on. Knowing snicker doodles were one of Wayne and the boys' favorites it looked like a hit, and naturally was.

Enjoy, I rarely make sweet treats with all the blood sugar and weight issues these days.
