“I figured if I was going to make the world a better place I’d do it with a muffin”
These muffins are seriously the BEST. A hint of coffee taste, walnuts and chocolate chips. See the recipe below (and do it fast, your life will be deliciously changed for… ever!) And if you can, get some colourful muffin forms to brighten your day. Spring has arrived here in Calgary, finally, and I just want to jump up and down in excitement. I keep opening the door to feel the temperature, as though it will miraculously disappear- which i wouldn’t put past Canadian weather. Knock on wood and cross your fingers that it’s here to stay. Happy Spring!
