Orange Chocolate Chunk Muffins are a sweet and portable treat with a cup of tea or coffee. Eat them in the morning or in the afternoon. They’ll always be awesome.
It’s midweek and my brain is fried. I should be coming up with clever words, but yet again, I’m empty.
I made you Orange Chocolate Chunk Muffins, and they’re awesome. I made these the first time without the chocolate, and they were perfectly fine. The chocolate is what makes these muffins really sing.
These muffins have a slightly crunchy outer crust and are lighter than air on the inside, just like muffins are meant to be. They’re also perfectly portable if you need to take your breakfast on the road. Pair them with tea or coffee, and you’re winning.
Muffins are good. Chocolate is great. Life is weird. Get into it.

Sounds yummy. I don’t have self rising. What should I add if I use all purpose? Thanks Renee.
