Hey Folks
I hope your New Year is starting off right. I found this recipe from Two Raspberries for vegan chocolate Muffins. I was sick for the first week of the new year. I am not usually sick, but Atlanta is in this deep cold freeze and I just could not deal. Thankfully, I had taken some time off, but sitting at home being sick was definitely not how I wanted to spend my days. At least I got to watch the new Dave Chappelle special and a ton of bad movies like the Room and Samurai Cop.
Vegan Chocolate Chip Muffins
Baking is still new to me, so finding this recipe for vegan chocolate muffins made me happy. I had actually tried to make this before when I was visiting the Georgia Blue Ridge mountains, but the recipe came out so weird. I learned you cannot bake in high altitudes unless you tweak the recipe. I am still a little under the weather so this will be a quick post. I am still behind on many other blog activities. Hope you enjoy!
