Use twttr.widgets.load(); to bind the twitter functionality to a dynamically added button.

Also, to make sure you don't load the script over and over again, you could first check if the script is already loaded with something like this

function twitter() {
    if ($(".twitter-follow-button").length > 0) {
        if (typeof (twttr) != 'undefined') {
            twttr.widgets.load();
        } else {
            $.getScript('http://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js');
        }
    }
}

$(function () {
    $('body').html('<a href="https://twitter.com/MagnusEngdal" class="twitter-follow-button" data-show-count="false">Follow @MagnusEngdal</a>')
    twitter();
});
