Only hardcore chocolate-lovers should make these muffins!

They're choco-crazy with cacao powder, cacao nibs and chocolate icing. The muffin is rich and moist while the icing is mild and creamy. We made them in a mini muffin tin, but you can do full-size muffins and you'll get six instead of twelve.

Be sure to share pics of your scrumptious creation!
