“I believe the world to be a muffin pan, and there certainly are a lot of muffins here.” Aaron Funk Mocha Walnut Chocolate-chip Muffins… When I read about theSnackshots #3 event hosted by Michelle @ Greedy Gourmet , I was thrilled. Opportunity to try these mocha muffins I had bookmarked long ago, & soon.

Devil’s Food Mini Muffins
This is a nice and easy recipe I browsed off the net ages ago. It’s a staple item on our kids birthday party menu, and I attempt to colour code it with the colours of the cake.
