These were good and easy to make. I followed the recipe as written other then I used vanilla yogurt as that is all I had. They were nice solid chocolate muffins. Mine took 15 minutes. -
Wonderful muffins! We all loved these. They were super moist and delicious. I used whole wheat flour and added a handful of miniature chocolate chips. Simply delightful. -
I was pleasantly surprised because I was really expecting a rubbery texture to this muffin due to lack of oils but they are fabulous! Some we ate as is and others I dusted with confectioner's powder as a sweeter twist. It is so nice to have a guilt-free muffin to serve my family that is quick and easy to make and very easy to grab & go on busy mornings. Made in the Best of 2010 Tag event (based on Chef Buggsy Mate's review)

My 9 year old daughter made these today. They were wonderful!!! very moist and tasty. She followed the recipe exactly except for the addition of 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips. She did have to bake them a few minutes longer then the recipe called for. This recipe is a definite keeper.

These were great, especially for a healthier muffin. Taste kind of like a chocolate sponge cake. I made exactly as written except I did add a half a cup of walnuts. Thanks for sharing a great recipe.
