Chocolatey, gooey, delicious brownie muffins are the perfect indulgent way to start your day.
I love brownies. They are probably my favorite baked good, I remember when my husband and I were planning our wedding almost 4 years ago and I seriously considered serving brownies and cupcakes. You probably already know my love for chocolate and muffins, so a recipe for brownie muffins should come as no surprise!
Thursday was book club day again, have I mentioned that I love having a reason to bake. I knew I wanted chocolate and muffins are quick, so I turned to my Brownie Points cookbook for guidance. This recipe is an adaptation of a muffin brownie cake, slightly healthier than the original, but equally as delicious. Chocolatey, gooey and delicious, served warm with a glass of milk, you’ll be in dessert, I mean breakfast heaven. Enjoy and happy baking!

I have a thing for brownies too…and yours is winking at me and telling me how much I need this one in my life 🙂
Seriously I was tempted to make more today because they are so good!
Wow, these look delicious!
Wow! These look great!
Thanks! Very decadent breakfast
Yum! Pinning this! If I could, all I would make would be dessert, but my boyfriend isn’t really into sweets, so I don’t bake all that often. 🙁

Brownie Muffins – brilliant idea! And I totes would not have judged you if you had told me you HAD served brownies at your wedding. Wedding cake is boring 😉
That looks super scrumptious!
