Now with New Improved Extra Chocolatey Flavor!

I made another batch of Chocolate Chocolate Chip Banana Mini Muffins and tried to give these more chocolate flavor. This time I used three heaping tablespoons of cocoa instead of two, and one of the tablespoons was Hershey’s Special Extra Dark cocoa. It worked — the batter was a much darker chocolate color and so were the muffins, and they tasted more chocolatey.

The top photo is my new favorite mini dessert: just heat up one of these bite sized muffins, add a tiny scoop of ice cream (I like Breyer’s Double Churn Light for a lower calorie option) and you have a great little dessert that won’t bust your diet. It would also be great with a little chocolate syrup or some sprinkles on top, just for fun.
