Pralines 'n Cream Muffins image

These muffins are very moist and delicious! Great for breakfast or snack. I like to double the recipe because these little jewels freeze well. Just wrap securely; seal, label and freeze. To reheat frozen muffins, unwrap; microwave at HIGH about 45 seconds per muffin
