One child loved these, one child didn't care for them, but the friend I made them for LOVED them. Will definitely make these again. I thought they were pretty darn good.

I tried these from How to Be A Domestic Goddess and they were very popular with my kids and my guests. I didn't have snickers, so I used a combination of fun-size twix and peanut butter cups. Snickers would have been better, but they were still good. I also made a glaze with chocolate chips and cream to drizzle all over the top.

It was okay, but to me the flavor was lacking. Not a recipe I would make again, I think.

I was given several snickers bars and had to something with them so I made these. I loved them and so did everyone else! I chopped up the snickers really small so they were unrecognizable in the muffins, just swirls of chocolate and carmel and peanuts. Yummy!

From Nigella Lawson's Domestic Goddess book, I love this recipe. I made them for the first time today and I know I'll be making them again soon.
