These muffins are fantastic! The sugar and cinnamon coating gives them the ideal flavor. My 10-year-old brother makes them occasionally on his own and says it’s his favorite dish.

Reviews
These truffles were unbelievably easy to make and very tasty! They had such a great chocolate & peanut butter taste and the pecans gave them great crunch!
Very easy and tasty. I can’t stop eating them!
Gosh these are good. Easy, quick and minimal clean up. My kind of recipe. I had almond butter and almonds, so I subbed those. Any kind of butter or nut would be great… next time I want to try this with cookie butter!
Hubs LOVES this One! They are so easy to make and their very convenient to just grab a few for a snack. I tend to go with savory things most of the time, but my husband has a sweet tooth. I’m a fan of both chocolate and peanut butter, but not together. I know… odd, however, it happens to be the Hubs favorite. I will make these for him again! I forgot to mention I didn’t have the nuts called for so I used chopped, roasted peanuts instead. I don’t think it made a huge diference.
9.1.18 Don’t think of these only for breakfast. They’re good enough to serve as an after-school snack for the kids, or even dessert with a cup of coffee or tea. Creamy good, tastes fudge-y, awesome chilled, and very easy to make. Only problem in this house is trying not to overindulge on them. Betcha’ can’t eat just one!
