Chocolate Chip-Coffee Muffins

I've already baked that fougasse that I've been eyeing at Lizzy's ....

So as the chorizo and thyme rolls from bourke's street bakery book .....

Ha ! I wish ! I'm obviously dreaming ! lol

I had to store my 2 bottle of yeast in the fridge .

At the rate I'm procrastinating , I don't know when can I actually bake another yeasted bread pfffffttttt

Lazy .......

But not too lazy to make some muffins ....

Hey ! No kneading and proofing involved here ! hahahaha

And these muffins will definitely perk you up !

As if drinking several cups of coffee a day are not enough .....

Uhm Some said that drinking coffee is good for your memory ! lol

Our flat smells like a coffee shop .

Coffee overload .

This easy recipe is a keeper .

For caffeine addict !
