Chocolate and Peanut Butter Raspberry Muffins
I made these after craving some of my Chocolate Peanut Butter Banana Bread one afternoon.
I love muffins with little bursts of fruit flavor, so added some raspberries and they took these to the next level!Gluten free, egg free, dairy free and refined sugar-free, these got a rave review from hubby who said they were literally the best thing I've ever made! High praise indeed.
