What would you give for that pop of coffee goodness with chunky dark chocolate all wrapped up in one package? A muffin that gives your morning that extra happy, happy feeling! I came up with a recipe that is a bit more healthy than your regular sugary sweet muffin. It has enough of sweet to make it real good and a secret ingredient that makes it real moist!
