Sugar Free Chocolate Chocolate Chip Muffins

Sugar Free Chocolate Chocolate Chip Muffins are actually a legal food to eat.
I say that because these muffins seem to be the best of all worlds.

Sugar Free Chocolate Chocolate Chip Muffins

Is there really a difference between a chocolate brownie, chocolate cake, a chocolate cupcake, and a chocolate muffin?
Technically, maybe one or two ingredients could differ. Usually, those ingredients will be the leavening ingredient (baking powder etc) or the liquid that is added (such as milk). Well, and what you bake it in of course.

The muffin reminds me of a movie that has had certain parts of it toned down for TV viewing.
While the movie will be rid of certain words or scenes, the muffin may have less decadence such as sweet flavoring. After all, the muffin is something that could be suitable for breakfast while the cupcake, cake, or brownie can be more of a dessert. I like to think of the chocolate muffin as a ‘legal’ way to eat a chocolate cake-ish for breakfast.

This chocolate chocolate chip muffin does have a double dose of chocolate.

We will be adding sugar free chocolate chips (the chocolate chip part). Also, we will add unsweetened cocoa for the other chocolate. You can find sugar free chocolate chips, as well as unsweetened chocolate that can be broken down, online. Any kind of unsweetened cocoa should work okay for this recipe as well.
