Snickers Muffins

Snickers are my favorite chocolate bar. I just love the combination of chocolate, caramel, and peanuts. Snickers are also great in all sorts of baked goodies. Here I've turned them delicious chocolate muffins.



What I loved most about these muffins was the crunch of the chunks of snickers bar within the muffin itself. The caramel from the pieces of snickers bar on top of each muffin also seeped down towards the center of the muffins spreading the chocolate bar deliciousness even further.

Snickers Muffins


Makes 12

2 1/4 Cups plain flour
3/4 Cup sugar
1/4 Cup cocoa powder
1 Tbsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
70 g (2.5 oz) butter, melted
1 Cup milk
1 tsp vanilla
2 eggs, lightly beaten
3 Snickers bars, 2 roughly chopped and 1 divided into 12 chunks

1. Preheat the oven to 200C (400F) and grease or line the wholes of a muffin tin.

2. Combine the flour, sugar, cocoa, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Combine the milk, butter, eggs, and vanilla in another. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry, add the roughly chopped snickers bars and mix until ingredients are just combined.

3. Spoon into the prepared muffin tin and bake for 20 minutes. Half way through cooking, place a piece of the snickers chunks onto the top of each muffin and continue baking.

4. Cool on a wire rack before storing in an airtight container.
