Whether you're catering to chocoholics or peanut butter lovers, these muffins promise to be the star of any snack or dessert table.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners, or grease the cups with non-stick cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the milk, vegetable oil, peanut butter, egg, and vanilla extract until smooth and well incorporated.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently fold together using a spatula or wooden spoon. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Gently fold in the chopped Snickers bars, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Divide the batter evenly among the 12 muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full. If desired, sprinkle the tops with mini chocolate chips for an extra touch of sweetness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 16-18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of a muffin comes out clean (ignoring any melted chocolate from the Snickers bars).
Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool in the tin for 5 minutes. Then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy as a decadent treat with a cup of coffee or a glass of milk!
