Grease muffin pan very well (do not skimp). This is what makes the glaze. Melt margarine. Pinch off the dough the size of a small apple, pull until dough is longer than wide, dip into melted margarine, then into sugar mixture. Work the sugar in well with fingers. Dough should be 5 - 6 inches long. Tie the dough into a knot and place in muffin tins. Let rise in a warm place covered until double in size - about 40 minutes. Bake at 375° for 20 minutes.
