Snickerdoodle Muffins

So I've made a couple different things this Christmas as treats to give..

And I really wanted to try these Snickerdoodle muffins, 

because it's basically the Traditional & Delicious Snickerdoodle cookie...BUT in a muffin!

And...It really tastes just like the COOKIE!

The sour cream makes this muffin super moist and delightful!

I was super happy how puffy they looked when they came out of the oven...It's kind of exciting :)

Enjoy!
