Get your chocolate and coffee fix all in one gorgeous HEALTHIER muffin! These chocolate chip muffins get their amazing texture from greek yogurt and they go amazing with your morning coffee!
Nobody ever said you couldn’t have it all in one killer muffin, guys.
And I’m here to tell you that muffin goals are real and they are currently staring you in the face.
My opinion may only be sliiiiiiightly skewed since I have an extremely obvious obsession with chocolate/espresso in any and everything in between, but that’s neither here nor there.
Just forget it and eat a few espresso chocolate chip muffins. They don’t ask questions nor do they judge.
Okay, let’s chat about the batter for these muffins. Keeping it fairly simple because it’s just my standard muffin batter base that I use for allllllllll the muffin insanity you see around here.
Only difference we’re gonna throw in the bowl is a nice-sized amount of brewed espresso and tons of greek yogurt. Hello perfect moist textures x10000000!!
Chocolate chips are obviously a given. And clearly a requirement. And you kinda can’t have good chocolate chip muffins without ’em.
Aaaaaaaaand…the famous first chocolate stretch. Mercy…
Do me a favor and please make sure that you have your morning coffee very close alongside these muffins.
Coffee + coffee muffins + chocolate = a morning to be reckoned with obviously.
