Why I Love This Recipe
Did you guys grow up having sweets for breakfast? Is that normal? Or was it the Dalkin family sweet tooth coming out to shine at an early age? Regardless Im not mad at it! My parents both have a sweet tooth and it was absolutely passed down to me and my sister! We used to split one of those giant chocolate chip muffins every morning for breakfast and head off to school.

The muffins were almost cake like and dotted with plenty of chocolate chips. Wed heat them up in the microwave for 20 seconds so we could get them warm and taste all that deliciousness. They were MOIST and chocolaty and I LIVE for the days when I get around to making some and can enjoy them for breakfast as an adult!
So naturally they deserve a place on WGC right? Obviously! Lets make them!
These couldnt be easier and I bet you have the majority of the ingredients on hand this very minute. Its the usual vegetable oil sour cream eggs flour sugar situation so youve probably got everything stocked right now! If you want to give this classic recipe a spin add some veggies yes I said that right check out the double chocolate chip zucchini bread!
