Chocolate Muffin Mix Recipe

There is just something about a chocolate muffin that makes it so much more tempting to me than all of the rest. I have a feeling that thing is….. chocolate. When I imagine the perfect Chocolate Muffin, it is full of rich chocolate flavor in a moist muffin. I’ve spent many years trying to figure out how to make the perfect Chocolate Muffin Mix because all of the muffins usually turn out dry, or just don’t have that strong flavor that I’m hoping for.

I think that you will love this simple Chocolate Muffin Recipe that I’ve finally settled on. It’s easy to make and store in your pantry until the day comes that you want to enjoy a yummy muffin. Plus, thanks to the addition of sour cream in this recipe, these muffins stay moist for days. They also freeze well so you can have them on hand for a quick snack or breakfast anytime.

Chocolate Muffin Mix Recipe

What You Need:

• 2 cups All Purpose Flour or All Purpose Gluten Free Flour
• 1 cup unsweetened Cocoa Powder

• 1/2 teaspoon Baking Soda
• 1/2 teaspoon Salt
• 1 1/2 cups Chocolate Chips
• 1 1/4 cups Sugar
