Fudge filled peanut butter muffins

9 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
⅓ cup Semisweet chocolate chips
1 tablespoon Unsalted butter or margarine
1⅔ cup Flour
½ cup Firmly packed light-brown sugar
¼ teaspoon Salt
1 tablespoon Baking powder
¾ cup Milk
½ cup Peanut butter
⅓ cup Oil
1 Lightly beaten egg
1½ teaspoon Vanilla
½ cup Chopped salted peanuts without skins (optional)

Directions

Preheat oven to 400øF, prepare pans. In a small saucepan (or microwave) heat chocolate chips & butter until melted, stirring constantly; remove from heat & reserve. In a bowl stir together flour, sugar, b/pdr & salt. In another bowl stir together milk, p/butter, oil, egg & vanilla. Add dry mix to wet mix until just combined. Spoon half of batter into pans. Divide chocolate mixture among muffins, a scant teaspoon per pan; do not let filling touch sides of pan. Spoon remaining batter over filling. Sprinkle tops of muffins with chopped peanuts if desired. Bake for 20-25 mins or until lightly browned. Makes 9 muffins. Variation: A ripe banana cut into ½" thick slices & dipped in orange juice may be used instead of the fudge filling.
