Day 31 - Chocolate Chip Muffins

Sunday, September 18, 2011

Today I decided to make a nice warm breakfast treat - chocolate chip muffins! It's starting to feel like fall [already] and nothing beats a nice warm muffin for breakfast with a cup of coffee! Keep in mind chocolate chip muffins certainly are a treat for a special occasion - you can't always have chocolate for breakfast :)

This recipe was so easy and I had all of the ingredients on hand! I literally whipped up the batter, baked the muffins and cleaned up in less than an hour. All this recipe takes is 2 bowls - one for the dry ingredients [flour, sugar, salt, and baking powder]; and one for the wet ingredients [sour cream, milk, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla]. I combined the wet and dry ingredients together, added the chocolate chips and they were ready to be put into the muffin tins!

After about 20 minutes the muffins were ready to come out. They looked and smelled great.

Finished Product!

I tried one warm and it was pretty good- I mean you can't beat melted chocolate. The only thing is that you probably have to serve them warm because when they cool down there will be whole chocolate chunks, which might not be as good when they aren't melted. The other thing I wasn't crazy about was that the muffin itself wasn't all that flavorful without the chocolate.
