Celebrating our 4th wedding anniversary with chocolate frosting orange muffin. I had just seen them while flipping through a cookbook and thought they sounded great. These muffins are just barely sweet with a bright, fresh orange flavor, a gorgeous chocolate frosting. I think yogurt is a magical ingredient in baking. I makes things fluffy and fabulous spongy. We love the combination of range in this sweet breakfast muffin with a chocolate topping.
