Ooooh, they smell good. I tried mine a little differently. I chopped up chocolate from a bar to make the chips, (big chips at that ;) ) partly because I just love Galaxy Muffins and wanted to make something as similar as I could. I will say, that is probably why they aren't as upright and peaking at the top as yours in the picture. But I may try another approach next time as the chips were big and heavy. I shall ice my muffins with just chocolate. I'm sooooo looking forward to digging into them properly (I took a little bit off the edge of one of them, it was brilliant!) Thanks for this recipe!

My husband and I both agree that they had very little chocolate flavor too them even using Hersey's cocoa and extra chips :(

These are sooooo good!! As I wanted to make these a little less sweet, I added only about 3/4 cup of sugar - and they were perfect! (unless you have a real sweet tooth!). Thanks so much Kit - and my co-workers thank you too!! :)
