Mix one cup of sugar with butter flavored Crisco until well blended. Add eggs and beat until smooth.
In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Add the flour mixture alternately with milk to the creamed mixture, beating well after each addition.
Lightly grease mini muffin tins. Fill muffin cups half full using a 1 tablespoon scoop. Bake in a 350°F oven for 13-15 minutes until golden brown.
While muffins bake, melt the unsalted butter. In a separate bowl, mix together 2.5 cups sugar with cinnamon. Dip baked muffins in melted butter to coat, then roll in the cinnamon sugar mixture thoroughly. Serve warm and enjoy!
