doughnut muffins

I am a yeast-risen doughnut sort of girl.
I like glaze.
What can I say?
But, when I came across this recipe on Pioneer Woman's website, I needed to try it.
I have a special (albeit, small) place in my heart (and belly) for cake doughnuts.
My brother hated the glazed doughnuts and would only eat the cake ones.
So, we had always had both.
This is for you, little brother! :)
