Butterfinger Muffins

Teresa Ambra
Butterfinger Muffins are outrageously good! These delectable muffins include Butterfingers in the muffin and on top so they're filled with all that great chocolaty and peanut butter taste. Your family and friends will rave over these fantastic muffins. Perfect for company, holiday or weekend breakfasts or brunch. They freeze well too so you can make them in advance when necessary.

  • Stir just until moistened.
  • Do not overmix!
  • Fill each prepared muffin tin about ¾ full. 
  • Sprinkle remaining ½ cup chopped Butterfingers evenly over top of each muffin.
