Muffin Monday: Peanut Butter and Snicker Muffins

If you were to ask me to list down my top 10 favorite muffins, a peanut butter and Snicker muffin would surely feature.

Complete madness the whole last week: I barely made it for my own muffin party. I have been down with the flu, had to make over a 100 brownies, a cake to be baked for my mother in law’s friend and all this in addition to my day-job that is far from the world of cakes and cookies.

But I did make it. And am glad I did. These muffins are just the pick-me-up I needed. Devoured warm right out of the oven with a cup of warm black currant tea… it was the perfect start to the day.

If you had to miss your muffin Monday it would have been O.K. but being the trooper that you are, you made it and we are all the luckier for it. These look so hearty and good and I am enthralled with your adorable presentation of them. Hope you are 100% now. Take good care.
