Like many of you I LOVE chocolate.  A day without chocolate is not worth living… am I right?!   So why not start the day off with these Cherry Chocolate Chip Muffins?!  I’ve made these muffins twice in the last month and both times they didn’t last more than two days.

Aren’t cherries just gorgeous?!  I love these sweet little beauties!  My husband finds eating them annoying but I actually find it quite fun… though I did buy a Cherry Pitter which makes cooking with cherries much faster.

These muffins have the perfect texture– soft on the inside with a crisp outside.  And the coarse sugar on top is optional but who doesn’t love a little sparkle and extra crunch?

    These are my go-to muffins. I make them in jumbo muffin cups and I get six. I use about 1-2 cups whole frozen dark sweet cherries, No chopping! Before baking use turbinado sugar on top for a little crunch. The bake takes a little longer. I check often so I don’t over bake. I get so many compliments on them and requests from friends for more.

    These muffins look absolutely STUNNING and sound even better! Seriously. I need to get my hands on some cherries, assuming I can find some, and make these before the season is too far gone. Thanks for sharing!
