Great recipe and wonderful flavor! Kids did not know I used a lighter recipe at all. Followed it completely except for the chocolate chips as I did not really measure so probably had a bit more but that is always a good thing with chocolate! Made for Healthy Choices Tag Game.

Yummy muffins! Thanks for sharing. I added more chocolate chips (about 2/3 cup total), and used a little bit of rolled oats in place of some of the flour (about 1 1/2 c flour, 3/4 c oats).

I loved these muffins! I didn't have any brown sugar and it was kind of hard to find a recipe that didn't call for that. This one didn't and it was awesome! I added a handful of walnut pieces, but other than that I didn't change the recipe. Definitely a keeper since I usually have all these ingredients on hand.
