ChocoMuffins

• 2 c. flour
• 2 1/2 tsp. baking powder
• 3 T. cocoa powder
• 2 T. sugar
• 1 c. chocolate chips
• 1 egg, beaten
• 1/2 c. nonfat sour cream
• 3/4 c. skim milk
• 1/3 c. margarine, melted

Heat oven to 415 degrees. Place muffin cups into a 12-hole muffin tin. Lightly spray each cup with cooking spray.

Mix the flour baking powder and cocoa powder in a bowl. Add the sugar and chocolate chips; stir to combine.

In a separate bowl, mix together the egg, sour cream, milk and margarine and pour into the dry ingredients bowl all at once. Stir until just mixed -- the batter should be lumpy.

Spoon the batter into the muffin cups. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until the muffins are firm. Remove the muffins from the tin and cool completely on a wire rack.
