Chocolate Chip Muffins


My kids love chocolate chip muffins and for some strange reason I kept buying a mix that made them. I knew there had to be an easy way to make them myself. I saw a recipe at Recipezaar.com and knew I had to try them. These were WONDERFUL and very easy to make. My picky son even commented on how they were better than the box mix. I did not use the nuts because Emma is allergic and I only had half a bag of chocolate chips, but they were still very full of chocolate chips
