Us peanut butter lovers know the struggle when it comes to coughing up the points so we can indulge on it! 😉 Whether it be right from the jar on a spoon or spread on some toast, lets face it peanut butter is amazing… I like the real deal, for me its Kraft peanut butter or nothing! I don’t bake with it too often but I was determined to make a low point mini muffin to cure those peanut butter cravings, not to mention chocolate as well. These little 2 point muffins are so yummy!

I was wondering what the smart points would be for these. I made them before I realized there was no smart point amount. Whoops.
I will get on them today.. my guess is they went from 1pp to 2sp.. 🙂
