Chocolate Cappuccino Crumb Muffins

This is a recipe I had to beg from a friend because I loved it so much. I'm not a coffee fan but I could eat about a million of these muffins. Even my 2 year old son loved these "cupcakes".

Chocolate Cappuccino Crumb Muffins

1 1/2 cup milk

1 cup butter, melted

1 egg

2 teaspoon vanilla

2 1/4 cup flour

1 cup sugar

1/2 cup brown sugar

1 tablespoon baking powder

1 1/2 teaspoon instant regular coffee (I double this to 3 teaspoons)

1/2 teaspoon salt

2 teaspoons cinnamon

10-12 oz semi-sweet chocolate chips (minis work best for this muffin)

Crumb Topping (makes enough for a double batch of muffins)

1/2 cup flour

1/2 cup sugar

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1/4 cup cold butter cut into chunks

Combine all ingredients and stir with fork until well combined.

Directions

Blend milk, butter, egg, and vanilla in a small bowl and set aside. 

Blend in a large bowl flour, sugars, baking powder, coffee, salt, and cinnamon. 

Add liquid ingredients all at once to dry ingredients.

Mix on low speed just to blend. Do not over mix.

Fold in chocolate chips.

Place approximately 1/3 cup of mixture into each muffin cup. Sprinkle each with crumb topping.

Bake at 350 F for 20 minutes.

Yield: 15 muffins
