Double Chocolate Blender Muffins

30 Sep Double Chocolate Blender Muffins

Easy recipes have become increasingly important with more time at home and virtual learning. These blender muffins are now the girls’ favorite things to make during our extra time at home. Virtual learning has its perks — mornings are less hectic, less driving, and more time together. But it comes with its headaches too — there are a lot more dirty dishes around the house these days!

My youngest loves baking when her virtual days are over, so last spring when we first shifted into this routine of virtual learning she started to play around with blender muffin recipes. They’re easy enough for her to make on her own — and something about being the little sister makes you want to do things on your own. I’m so happy she enjoys making these, because I’ve grown fond of being able to wake up and have a chocolate muffin with my coffee. 

Blend, pour, bake, cool, serve. That’s for these tasty snacks! The additional sprinkle of chocolate chips on top is totally optional — but absolutely not optional for my girls, and I’m totally okay with that. I hope you enjoy this simple yet sweet recipe as much as we do! 

Ps. A giant thank you to all the teachers out there getting creative and helping to keep the students engaged during these very strange times. And to the parents doing their best to support the kids.
