Hand Over the Chocolate

The question was asked, “What could you do less of?” My first thought was gloomily, eating chocolate. That thought was immediately followed by, why would I deprive myself of such deliciousness? The silly question was the only temptation I needed to start baking. So HAND OVER THE CHOCOLATE and let’s make some Double Chocolate Muffins!

Baking is something I’ve enjoyed doing since I was very young. Photography, on the other hand, became an interest a lot more recently. These are two hobbies that I don’t usually combine but a cold, wet, and windy Friday and a longing for chocolate seemed a perfect time to enjoy both.

Anyone want to join me in my transgression of eating way too much chocolate? Are you up for some fresh and warm muffins with chocolate dripping down the chin after each bite?
