Chocolate Chip Mini Muffins

We love mini muffins around here. My daughter especially loves chocolate chips. When I found this recipe it was a perfect fit. I have tried many chocolate chip muffins recipes but this one we love. Honestly, they are just as yummy as a chocolate chip cookie.
Now if you are looking for healthy these may not be for you. You could always switch out the flour for some whole wheat (!i would still mix in some white flour as well). I like to make the recipe a few times as written and wait for them to fall in love with them first before I begin slowly adjusting the recipe. It's a little tricky but sometimes they don't even know the difference. Last time i made these I completely forgot to put in the melted butter and they still gobbled them up!

I believe the original recipe is for regular sized muffins. Just be sure to adjust your cooking time. I usually set my timer for about 7 minutes and check them from there for any mini version. I also adjust the temperature for the mini versions as well to 350.

French Breakfast Muffins

I am making a goal!  Goals are scary, but I thought I would make one anyway.  I am going to add to this blog every day...well ok maybe every other day...

So here is one of my childrens favorite breakfast on school mornings

French Breakfast Muffins from Family Fun.com

shown here of course in my Longaberger small entertaining basket (love it)

I change the recipe a bit.  I make them in mini muffin tins for tiny little bites.

I butter the tins (you can use spray)

Make a well in the dry ingredients and pour in liquids.

mix well with a wooden spoon

and bake.  I set the timer for about 7 min and watch after that.

Muffins waiting to be dunked in butter and cinnamon sugar-Yum!

I like to freeze them and take out as many as my little ones want in the morning and just pop them into the microwave for 5 seconds.  Just like hot out of the oven!

I have this picture to show you two of my favorite things..my glass 2 cup and 4 cup measuring cups.  They come in handy for mixing small amounts and melting items like butter or chips in the microwave.  Couldn't live without them!
