Chocolate Muffins(Eggless)

Blogging events simply excite me..one,I get to cook something which I wouldn't otherwise on a daily basis..two,I love to see the round-ups and try out different dishes from it.There are so many round-ups which I have bookmarked and yet to try.Then there are those who tempt you with each and every entry.Sunshinemom's FIC-Brown was such a round-up.I wanted to try at least 7 recipes instantly and one of those,I tried out immediately,after checking the ingredients.

I should definitely improve my photography skills,coz my pic is nowhere close or as tempting as this one,which is the sole reason I tried out the recipe.I simply fell in love with the way those cute muffins looked and knew rightaway that I had to make it.Being an eggless one at that was one of the catalyst too..;-)

Since DK has threatened us with dire consequences if we don't contribute to AWED-American,I decided I better send something and what better way to start the day with a couple of muffins with a cold cup of milk?
