Chocolate Chocolate Chip Banana Muffins with Glaze
Chocolate Chocolate Chip Banana Muffins with GlazeMore of my favorite sweet tooth breakfast recipes are Chocolate Chip Buttermilk Scones, Chocolate Crepes with Strawberries, Brownie Batter Pancakes, and Red Velvet Pancake with Cream Cheese Topping.
There are many chocolate lovers in my house, and these muffins disappeared quickly. I added a glaze on top for presentation, I like how it contrasts over the dark chocolate, but for the flavor you don’t even need it; either way the points remain the same. This recipe makes 12 large muffins, you could probably even get 14 if you fill the muffin tins 3/4 full. Mini muffins would make a great back to school snack for the little ones, they won’t even know there’s fruit in them! Leftovers can be refrigerated or frozen to last longer.
