Unfortunately, I have a severe case of burnout. The good news: I have a week off during which I can do whatever I want. The bad news: when I’m really tired and or stressed (aka burnt out) I find most foods extremely unappetizing and even nauseating (to make matters worse I take medication that can often act as an appetite suppressant). Long story short is that Sprouts double chocoalte muffins are a food I can always eat, so I tried to make them at home and ended up making this recipe for chocolate muffins. And I was really not a fan.
Things to take into account: I didn’t have chocolate chips (very sad), I used a regular size muffin tin (not jumbo as in the recipe), I halved the recipe (because I didn’t want to have 24 muffins if I didn’t like them), cakes and muffins are not my baking strong suit, and my appetite is extremely fickle at the moment (unintentional bias).
I found the flavor rather lack-luster and my partner and I agreed that they have a weirdly gummy texture. If I were to try and make double chocolate muffins again, I would for sure try another recipe.
