Dark Chocolate Muffins

Saturday, June 14, 2014


These dark chocolate muffins are perfect for every dark-chocolate lover. It's not too sweet, it's delightfully moist and fluffy. Fresh out of the oven, the chocolate chips are warm and gooey and the top has a barely crispy texture. 

The aroma is irresistible.
