These Chocolate Coffee Muffins are the ultimate breakfast or mid-day snack. They are simple to make and are packed with chocolate and coffee flavors. Moist, soft, and lightly sweetened. Delicious with a cup of warm coffee, and slathered with nut butter and chocolate.
TIPS WHEN MAKING THESE MUFFINS
- Line your muffin tin with cupcake liners or spray with cooking oil. This will prevent your muffins from sticking to the pan after baking.
- You will want to use two separate bowls when making your batter. One bowl to mix the dry ingredients and another bowl for the wet.
- Do not overmix your batter. I like to limit my mixing to 1 minute.
- Save ΒΌ cup of chocolate chips to sprinkle on top of the muffins before baking. This allows the chocolate chips to be seen.
- Test to see if the muffins have been cooked all the way by sticking a toothpick in the middle. If it comes out clean then it’s cooked completely.
I like to prep my ingredients prior to making them by separating them in two different bowls. Be sure to whisk both your dry and wet ingredients together before combining them. You will notice that the wet ingredients (oil) will separate very quickly.
My favorite time of day to eat these muffins are for breakfast or for a snack. Pairing it with coffee and dairy-free milk and topping them with nut butter is my go-to way to eat them.
This recipe makes 18 muffins which my husband and I can never eat all in one serving. So, I like to wrap my leftovers and place them in the freezer for later. When I’m ready to eat them I let them desfost for a bit and place them in the microwave for a minute.

These were delicious. I added 2 extra tbsp of espresso powder as the batter didn’t have enough coffee for my taste and they turned out amazing. I will definitely be making them again.
I am so happy you enjoyed them Kate! Adding more espresso powder sounds wonderful.
