Some days you just need chocolate. Not a little bit of chocolate—like, an irresponsible amount of chocolate. That’s exactly what these double chocolate muffins deliver, and I’m not even sorry about it. I created this recipe after a particularly rough week when I needed something that felt like a warm, chocolatey hug. Store-bought muffins weren’t…
Okay, let’s address the elephant in the room—oatmeal raisin cookies have a reputation problem.
