Chocolate Chip Muffins

---

Fantastic and light muffin thats great for a snack for the kids, or for school lunches. I make these muffins nearly every weekend for the school the next day, but they are usually all gone! You can make these as muffins, or just mini cup-cakes for kid's parties or treats. I only use 1/2 cup of sugar in this recipe as my father is diabetic and i find that 3/4 of a cup is too sugary.
