This gingerbread is bursting with Christmas spices. It's moist and delicate, but not fluffy like a muffin. These little gems will be great in the morning while sipping on coffee. Or, serve with a dollop of whipped cream and it's a delicious dessert. This is a great old-fashioned recipe that proves sometimes the old way of doing things is the best. Bake a batch and watch these disappear!

- Fill each muffin cup 2/3 cup full of batter.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes.
