White Chocolate Muddy Buddies

You know I've never made these, let alone had them until just last week. How crazy  is that!? But now I understand why everyone loves them so much and why they are insanely addictive. I did a lot of recipe research and I wasn’t surprised to see how much sugar are in these little pockets of heaven so while I was recipe testing them overload you with sugar so I took it down a slight notch, but at no point compromised sweetness of flavour, I promise.
