Chocolate Yumminess!

So I was looking around the other day on my favorite blogs and I came across a recipe that I had to make! Being lactose "challenged" and trying to find substitutes for some oldies, but goodies has been a bit difficult. Like I said before, I don't really live close to many places that dairy free alternatives. So, getting to these places takes quite a bit of effort! I came across some dairy free chocolate chips about a month ago. I am not a huge chocolate fan. I know, the nerve of me to even say that, but I am not. I am so much more a vanilla and fruit girl. Lately, I have started to miss things that I just haven't had in a long time. I have to admit that looking at so many great blogs doesn't help with that. Other than the fact that some of them have given me some great alternatives to foods that have dairy! So, today I made a batch of Low-Fat Double Chocolate Muffins that I found on Have Cake Will Travel! They were amazing!! The whole family loved them. I made a half batch and baked them in mini muffin cups. The only changes I made was using Almond Milk and regular balsamic vinegar. I loved them and J could not believe they were dairy free! So, if you are in need of some chocolate yumminess, I would highly recommend these little treats!

A half batch gave me 17 mini muffins that were 52 calories a piece!

Thank you Celine! It is so nice to hear that! I can't take credit for the layout though...it is the creation of my husband, the illustrator!
