Muffins are a baker’s best friend. If you’re starting off with baking and you can’t figure out what to bake, bake muffins! If you’re a professional baker and you have a sweet craving and you can’t figure out what to bake, bake muffins! Haha. And if you really have to bake some muffins, nothing can be better than these chocolate chunk muffins!
Why these muffins are called chocolate chunk muffins is because you incorporate some dark chocolate chunks into the batter that make them so much more decadent and most certainly more heavenly.
These chocolate chunk muffins are so perfect, I can’t even! The recipe is also pretty easy and straight-forward and who does not love some rich chocolate muffins with a good cup of coffee? Haha!
