Ww Triple Chocolate Chunk Muffins Low Fat

BakinBaby's Note:

This is a knock off of Whole Foods 6 dollar per 4 Vita Top Muffins. Low fat ingredients include egg whites, yogurt and sugar substitute. To reduce calories and WW points you can also make 24 smaller muffins (2.5 points). I found this little chocolate gem at healthyisalwaysbetter.com. If you make 12 large muffins, they are 5 points per muffin.

I also found this on the same website as you, thanks for sharing as I'm sure it will fit for some. They taste like diet food and were missing the texture I was craving. Banana-Chocolate Chip Muffins has a better texture with slightly fewer calories. The protein can be tweaked by using almond flour, etc. I'm going to opt for that one and try adding coco powder next time and the 1/2 cup applesauce I always add for moisture.
