Chocolate Cinnamon Muffins

Like most females, I love chocolate...so why not make a whole wheat muffin even better...

What you will need...

• 1 cup milk
• 1 cup applesauce, unsweetened
• 1 egg
• 3 tbsps oil
• 2 cups whole wheat flour
• 1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa
• 1/2 brown sugar
• 3 tsps baking powder
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 1 tsp ground cinnamon
• cinnamon and sugar grinder

Mix milk, applesauce, egg, and oil in a bowl.  Add dry ingredients and stir until well blended.  Use an ice cream scoop to generously fill a nonstick muffin pan or baking cups.  Top with a twist of the cinnamon and sugar grinder.  Bake at 400* for 20 to 25 minutes, or until a tooth pick comes out clean.  Let set just a couple minutes and then carefully transfer to cooling rack.  After cooled, store covered in refrigerator to keep about 1 week.  Enjoy!

Makes about 15 muffins...yes this means you will need to get out another muffin pan.
