I’m on a major pantry cleaning spree and have decided to bake using everything that’s available. I have a habit of randomly picking up things that I’d like to bake with, but if I don’t find a recipe for them right away, they kinda run away into the quite corners of my pantry.I guess it’s a factor of the right time and the right recipe. Does that happen with you to?
So I found these Twix bars that I had initially got to make brownies with. But the recipe I like (and I’ll share it with you) is not quite a quick fix one. I really was in no mood to melt chocolate and all of that in the midst of my cleaning. I guess they’re still lying because I really wanted to use them for baking, and not a midnight snack.
I feel adding candy bars in muffins was the best idea EVER! Imagine a tender crumb enveloping your favorite candy. Can you think of anything better to brighten up your mundane monday?
