Submitted by Redsie

"From Hershey. Nice light chocolatey taste. Perfect with a nice cup of coffee - these muffins are moist and not too sweet."

Try making quantities for 8 and baking in a loaf tin.Slice into 8 slices. Serve with yoghurt and fruit. Great WW dessert for 1 1/2pts

this was definitely a good recipe! i made a few changes. i only added 1/2 cup of sugar and i added some mini choco. chips. next time i may even add less sugar. my only complaint was that the muffins stuck TERRIBLY to the paper liners. i recomend not using liners at all and greasing your miffin tins really well. over all very easy and a nice lowfat/calorie snack!

I love the recipe! I know why, I already had it in my recipe book! I halved this recipe and it made 6 nice sized muffins. The only change I made was it called for 3/8 c. sugar and I reduced that down to 1/3 c. Great muffin with no oil, butter or eggs and a light chocolate taste. I think it would be good with some mini chocolate chips in it or even some nuts. Great recipe!

We enjoyed these. Super easy to make, sort of spongy due to the very low fat content. But a nice soft chocolate taste good for breakfast treats as we run out the door!
