Just Muffins

Lately, I've been lazy in attempting complicated bakes since my son has a lot of school work to do. Not that I do his homework's :) but I've been coaching him everyday which leaves me feeling exhausted most of the time. I try to bake once in a while but I limit my choices to simple and fuss free ones.

I've been making muffins lately. I thought it would be easy but honestly I think I'm trying to re-learn it again. I've been more accustomed to cakes and I feel a little bit uneasy about muffins. All the while I thought it would be a breeze but I was disappointed with the result. I need to brush up my skill in muffin making.

Mocha Choco-chip Banana Muffins

Although these muffins may not look so appetizing surprisingly I like its taste. The mocha flavor wasn't that intense which is good because we don't like the flavor of coffee. Walnuts went well with banana and chocolate chips. I over cooked these muffins so they look over browned but I still find them tasty.





Chocolate Cream Cheese Bites

I had high hopes when I made this muffins. Sadly, the result was a bit disappointing. I find it lacks sweetness. It was a bit dry and the cream cheese flavor somehow didn't came thru even though it was paired with chocolate. Looks can be deceiving...

Triple Chocolate Muffins

Compared to the other two muffins at least this came out really nice. I would describe this as "bold and daring". These uses three types of chocolate - Dutch Processed Cocoa, semi-sweet chocolate and chocolate chips. I also added some chopped walnuts and they came out wonderful.
