  41. Angie, I first saw these amazing and tempting muffins on facebook...since I've made some changes on my facebook profile, and made some major changes of who to, or not to follow!
    I was so impressed and inspired that you are sharing your posts on facebook, and also are in love with your fabulous and gorgeous yummy chocolate muffins. I love, the filling with the cream cheese, the use of the dark cocoa, and less sweetness; the coconut, flakes, the glaze...I must make this real soon...bookmarking it!

  53. Oh my gosh, these look amazing and what a great idea to grind the oats into flour. I digest oats well but many do not so this method not only renders the oats more versatile for baking it also breaks them down into a more digestible form. Love it.
