- Chocolate….who doesn’t love chocolate?!? One of the hardest parts of living a healthier lifestyle is giving up the super sugary and delicious baked goods. Let's face it they taste good, but they don’t look good on our thighs! But, we need to indulge occasionally, or we run the risk of completely falling off track and overindulging.
While you can’t eat this every day and still achieve your goals you can have them now and then without all the guilt! No oil…no refined sugar and if gluten-free is your thing these can easily be made gluten-free! The best part of this recipe is that you just to throw it all in the blender and go! Hope you enjoy these moist and yummy muffins as much as I do!
