Chocolate chunk muffins


Okay, so these are to DIE for. Chocolatey, chunky, gooey goodness. So yummy. And they are on the healthy side to boot! Inspired by Dashing Dish. Sorry for the crappy photography--I was clearly too excited to eat these babies to steady my hands for a decent picture.

2 eggs
3/4 c. unsweetened cocoa
1/2 c. unsweetened applesauce
1 tsp. almond extract

1 1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. salt
1 c. hot water

1/2 c. 60% cacao chocolate chips
