Switch Them Up
Remember how I mentioned that Neapolitan ice cream worked for us because it provided variety? The magic about these muffins is that you can have all three flavours or you can skip one and double up on another.
Can You Store Them?
To store these muffins, line an airtight container with paper towel. Place them one layer and top them with a paper towel. This is to keep them nice and soft but, not soggy.

Can You Freeze Them?
Muffins are the perfect treat to freeze. You just place them in a single layer inside resealable bags. Try to get as much air as you can from them.
Put them inside another resealable bag to avoid freezer burn and label them with the current date. You can keep them frozen for up to 3 months. Defrost them at room temperature and enjoy!
Hopefully, you’ll love these muffins!
