Chocolate chocolate chip muffins made with beets for a richer color and nutritional boost. They taste like traditional chocolate muffins, only better!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Chocolate<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

I wanted to make muffins for the family of a friend undergoing surgery. I thought they would be a great quick and easy breakfast for the kids (and husband) while she was laid up. Of course they had to be chocolate, so to add a bit more nutrition and moisture and color, I added ...   some pureed beets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After I baked them I gave a few to my son and his friends just for a taste test. They were devoured in a few minutes with no notice I had added \"something funny\"!  Actually, after the first bite, my Sir Snubs a Lot exclaimed \"Hey look, there are chocolate chips in here, yeah!\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I hope her crew doesn't notice or object to the beets either. But, even if they do she will eat them because she loves her veggies. (Get well soon, Mary!)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

They are quick and easy if you already have the pureed beets, otherwise they take a bit longer. But they still are easy. And the muffin I split with my husband was delicious.<\/p>\n\n\n
