I’ve obviously been on a bit of a muffin Kick. Here is a recipe from last time.

GLUTEN FREE OATMEAL AND CHOCOLATE MUFFINS

Chocolate Muffin Recipe

These were some pretty healthy muffins and I had them as snacks for a whole week. However, today’s recipe has nothing to do with health or fitness. It’s all about decadence and being very naughty. I’ve been really good this week. I’ve been to the gym, I’ve been eating clean so I think the weekend is gonna need a bit of a treat. And that means CHOCOLATE MUFFINS!!!

One of the reasons why I started this blog was to try out new things and push myself as a self taught cook. But the other reason was that I wanted to let people know just how easy it was to make your own stuff. Not only is it easy, but it is ridiculously cheaper to make your own cake than buy one. and it tastes a whole lot better (Ok sometimes😉

There you go. Now let me just say that not every recipe here is gonna be super clean and healthy. Every once in a while we are allowed to treat ourselves. The only thing is moderation. Limit yourself to a muffin a day (ok lets be serious, you can have two).

lemme get back to my breakfast
