Nutella Banana Muffins

When I 1st saw this Nutella Banana Muffins at Phong Hong's blog, I knew that I gonna bake it, the generous of Nutella whirls are calling me lol. Of course the look of my muffins didn't give justice to the taste, dunno why my nutella became harden that I had difficulty to do the whirling. Do take a look at PH's bakes, you will sure be hooked by the look lol.

These muffins are one of the giveaway to dear daughter's classmate, her mum is a kind lady that always offer help to chauffeur dear daughter to classes, that's really relief me a lot especially when the classes are during office hours.Y, thank you very much!
