Happy Muffin Monday! This week we have cinnamon swirl muffins.

What a whirlwind two weeks!  Six Hairspray performances, 3 dress rehearsals, over 3,000 photos taken, 7 house guests (including my 3 Utah kids!), cast party, photography class taught, and a few other things.  Busy but so fun!  I can’t wait to share a few of those photos with you this week!

I made these Cinnamon Swirl Muffins twice this last week.  They are like a coffee cake in muffin form.

I used my basic muffin recipe and tweeked it a bit, adding in some brown sugar and buttermilk.  I also added a yummy brown sugar, cinnamon swirl mixture to it.

The first time I made them I just put the streusel mixture on top and swirled it in.  Cali suggested they would be better if more of the streusel was in the middle of the muffin  and on top so I took her suggestion and made them again – definitely better.  Thanks Cali!
