Chocolate Chip Muffin Recipe

Choc Chip Mufffins for Breakfast

A friend gave me this Chocolate Chip Muffin Recipe after I fell in love with the muffins at her 40th birthday tea party. Now I really shouldn’t be eating chocolate muffins for breakfast but sometimes its fun to have a change.

Over-mixing the batter will make them tough. These muffins are beautifully moist and I love to serve them warm, cut in half and topped with mascarpone cheese. If I'm feeling very indulgent, then maybe a spoon of strawberry preserve too.

Of course they taste just wonderful on their own too.

This recipe makes about 16 choc chip muffins
