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.
