The Super Bowl was FANTASTIC!! What a game, we spent the last 2 minutes of the game pacing back and forth. The STEELERS rule!! To Read More, Click On The Recipe Title.
My party menu consisted of the Pizza I blogged about in the last post, Pulled Pork Sandwiches and Homemade Potato Rolls with baked beans and cole slaw. Dessert was Paula's Mocha Caramel Brownies, a moist chewy lusciously rich brownie topped with a Mocha Cream Cheese Frosting. Oh Paula these were FANTASTIC!!!
My picture isn't nearly as good as Paula's, so go visit her and check out her picture and the recipe!
Today I decided to make Baked Apple Donuts, the recipe calls them donuts but to me they're muffins. Wonderful muffins that are rolled in butter and cinnamon sugar after they're baked.
Oh how I love apples and cinnamon. Grace loves cinnamon so much that she has an event that I'm going to submit these to called "Cinnamon Celebration"
You have until Friday February 13 at 12 midnight to get your entry in. Your recipe, (preferably a recipe you haven't blogged about before), should have at least 1 tsp of cinnamon in it. Send your entry to Grace at asoutherngrace @ gmail . com using the subject "Cinnamon Celebration" by February 13, along with a picture of your creation, your name, the name of your blog, and the link to your post. Grace can we submit more than one entry?? if we can there will be more coming from me!
This recipe came from A View of America recipe site. The next time I make these I'll add more apples (just because I love them), and replace the nutmeg with cinnamon , I'm not real fond of nutmeg and prefer cinnamon. Actually this recipe didn't have cinnamon in the batter, I added it. I made regular sized muffins (6 ) and decided to make mini muffins( 6) as well, this is a very nice donut ....muffin recipe!

Yum, your desserts look great and your dog is so cute!
I think I sleep like that everynight! Ha!
Those muffins...oh my gawd...OMG!
Although your muffins look out-of-this- good, nothing will ever beat the picture of your pup! I mean, seriously!!
Oh I am making these! They look fantastic!
I'm so glad you liked the brownies! :) I can't wait to try this amazing donuts. Yum!
CUTE dog!
Those muffins look fantastic!
I made these muffins, but never thought to add apples!!!
OMG....those muffins look delicious! I LOVE cinnamon too!
Don't feel bad about your food not looking like the professional pictures (i.e. the Paula brownies). I saw a tv show on Food Network Challenge and they had FOOD DESIGNERS on. They had to create a dish that would photograph well and have the correct ingredients included (and SOME extra ingredients to make the food prettier). They had all sorts of trick....and didn't always prepare the food to the exact specifications...just so it would LOOK pretty.
Ok I just WANT those brownies! YUM!
Glad to see Chloe resting some.... those puppies surely work themselves out!!!
The donuts and brownies look amazing... wishing I could help myself!!!
Chloe seems has the same personality as my female Golden retriever. Sometimes, she sleeps like that, but not in my sofa.
Baked donuts sounds very delicious!
Cheers,
Elra
Baby Cloe is the cutest!!! The caramel brownies looks so moist and decadent. I love the Apple Donut muffins!! And cinnamon!! I will have to check out the celebration.
i am all over those donuts! they look so good!! and how cute is chloe?!?! that picture is total cuteness!
"...roll in butter, then in sugar mixture." How could that not be good?! Your muffins and your brownies look delicious. All I had to eat for the Superbowl were Skittles and Tostitos with salsa from my son's party. I wish I'd been at your house.
These sound soooo good!
Both of those look wonderful but I really think I need those donuts in my life, like now!!! Yum, dipped in butter and then rolled in cinnamon sugar!? I love cinnamon sugar!

These muffins look so good. I need to have these muffins. Hmmm. how can I healthyify them? Must work on these!
although the pup is adorable and the brownies are ooey-gooey-delicious, clearly the donuts thrill me most of all. :)
I love anything with cinnamon in it. Your muffins are making me drool. Your puppy is so cute. My cat sleeps like that :)
Those baked apple donuts look so crumbly and delicious! Yum.
such comfort food!Chloe is adorable, she looks just like my dog Pooh Bear especially rubbing her back like that.
My cat does what your dog does. Just nabbed both recipes...I've been wanting to try something different and these sound just perfect!
lol our dogs are the same way. And those desserts all look amazing--I'm not sure which I'd go for first...probably the brownies!
Very cute puppy... the desserts look so darn good.
My hubby would scarf those donuts down in a second!
Oooh. Baked donuts. Who can argue with that?
I'm not even looking anymore at those donuts - oh my gawd!!!!
I also really empathize with Chloe - I'm telling you, when I have a full day of chewing rawhide, I feel exactly the same way :)
oh wow...yum..I knew I should not have come over here!
Your poor Baby Chloe is so cute!!! And the muffins... yum!
Your little baby is adorable! These "donuts" look amazing and since they're not fried, I consider them health food :)
Doughnuts and nronies in one day...you're my kind of gals:D
I like your pictures!
Thor sleeps like that sometimes! At his size, it's absurd!
Chloe, looks like me after all the food I ate during the Super Bowl lol. All you food looks so good. Love it all!
Hi, Bunny, I forgot to tell you that I linked to these bake apple doughnuts on my blog and that I made them again after that for Superman's work. The second time I made them, I made them all minis and the people went crazy for them. Superman says they absolutely loved the minis and that they were way easy to eat (at work)! Thanks for sharing the recipe with us! http://nagle5.blogspot.com/2009/02/baked-apple-doughnuts-random-thoughts.html
Cute doggie. Your apple donuts are so delicious looking. I must have a go at them. Everything in this post looks awesome.
One of your cinnamon apple donuts will surely keep the doctor away for me. I can see your little Chloe is much loved!!!!
BEE YOU TI FUL...how lovely those brownies & muffin/doughnuts are. Love exhausted Chloe too...it's a dogs life Bunny, wish I could loll about in gay abandon like that too!!
Apple and cinnamon, no better combination. BTW Chloe looks adorable.
Those brownies look so good. Definitely something for the next party - and the muffins too!
Those donuts look amazing, but Chloe totally stole the show for me!!! AHHH!!! I just want to rub that wee pink tummy!
Oh WOW - Great looking desserts! I am drooling
I just had to say, regarding your last comment on my blog, about the Jordan Marsh muffins. I totally remember those! I used to LOVE those. You have a recipe for them?
I have got to try those muffins. OMG they look amazing!
