Mocha Muffins

This recipe was from one of my "runner-up" recipes from muffin week that I finally got around to baking.  I found this recipe on Joy of Baking and decided to make them because I was just craving chocolate this morning for breakfast.  The recipe turned out well, and definitely satisfied my morning chocolate fix in a "healthy muffin" sort of way lol.  The muffins texture was more cake like and not as moist as a regular muffin but still had great flavor.  I couldn't taste the coffee too much but I think I didn't brew a strong enough cup.

I enjoyed the addition of white chocolate chips for texture but I think next time I will add semi-sweet chocolate chips instead for better chocolate flavor and color appearence.  I made my muffins a bit smaller (about 1/4 Cup full) and only baked them for 18-20min and got about 24 muffins.  I would make these muffins again but definitely make a stronger pot of coffee or even add some kaluha for that extra kick of goodness.  Chocolate muffins is one of my favorites and I've posted the recipe for this mocha muffin above but let me know what your favorite muffin is and maybe next time I have a muffin week I will have to test it out.
