These dark chocolate muffins are delicious and surprisingly healthy.
You can have your cake and eat it too! Eating clean and healthy doesn't have to mean you can't enjoy yourself and indulge. There is no added sugar and no flour in this recipe. They are totally kid approved and they can not tell the difference. Give them a try. I can't promise that you will not want to eat them with vanilla ice cream though. If you do, try the no added sugar vanilla coconut ice cream!
