Healthy Mayo and Choco-Chip Muffins

Submitted by GothiKochen

"I loved this muffin recipe so much I refused to give it up. The original recipe had 260 calories per muffin, and I managed to reduce it to 150 (to my calcs; the site is usually off) without sacrificing much of the taste or texture. Now I can almost have 2 muffins for the price of 1 ;) haah, not really."
