Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Muffins

Today I get to return the favor for a fellow blogger. Remember Erin from The Spiffy Cookie? She guest posted for me while I was off vacationing in Europe. Well today I’m guest posting for her while she’s off vacationing in Europe!

I made these muffins a couple months ago when my first niece entered the world. I wrapped them up individually so my brother and his wife could keep them in the freezer and just grap one for a quick snack.

So head over to The Spiffy Cookie to get the recipe and see the rest of the post!

I grew up calling them Samoas and didn’t like them when I was selling them, but have since grown to love them. Great twist on a traditional rice krispie treat!

  I can’t tell if the naming thing is regional or not. I know people who grew up in Indiana like me who call them Samoas. They’ll always be Caramel Delites to me.

I’ve been wondering why they aren’t always called Samoas!

Are the pecans there for the Samoa flavor or just an extra addition?
- beantownbaker — March 18th, 2014 @ 8:03 am
  
  They add some texture but you could leave them out if you wanted.

Awesome recipe! Let me provide a little insight to the naming of the cookies (Caramel deLights vs Samoas my wife is a girl scout troop leader). The girl scouts rely on a few bakeries to produce their cookies. Caramel deLights are made by one bakery, while Samoas are made by another.

Just made these – very tasty, but I had a lot of trouble with the caramel layer. It hardened so much, I couldn’t cut the squares. I had to heat them up a bit to cut through the caramel, and then they got rather sticky and did not cut cleanly. Followed directions exactly, not sure what went wrong…

On Sunday nights, my hubby leads a college-age Bible study group and I use the kids/young adults as my guinea pigs for trying new recipes. I made these yesterday and they LOVED them. Thank you for the recipe!

  So glad these were a hit for you! This has become my most frequently made and requested recipe that I’ve made.
