This month’s #ImprovCookingChallenge is to create a recipe using chocolate and raspberries. My family has been having a number of early mornings where we are short on time so need quick grab and go breakfast options. Muffins are one of our favorites so I thought this was the perfect opportunity to come up with some muffin combinations, staring with Raspberry Chocolate Chip Muffins.
This muffin batter is a great starting point for almost any combination of flavors. I’ve made this with only raspberries and another variant with chocolate chips and vanilla extract instead of almond. I plan to try it with many other variations. It makes a batch of just twelve which is perfect so that they are fresh and hot when you want to eat them.
