Triple Chocolate Muffins

I’m to go ahead and say what anyone else who makes chocolate muffins says: Triple Chocolate Muffins are only an excuse to eat chocolate cake for breakfast.  Cliche? Yes.  True?  Yes.  🙂

Triple Chocolate Muffins

These Triple Chocolate Muffins are full of chocolatey goodness. You start with unsweetened chocolate, then add semisweet and bittersweet chips to the batter to round out these bundles of chocolate overload.  While they are full of sweetness they really aren’t that sweet, they won’t leave you with a toothache.  They are just tender, full of flavor muffins that are great for dessert or with a cup of coffee!!
