For an extra boost of flavor, try adding a teaspoon of instant coffee powder to the dry ingredients. Feel free to substitute the dark chocolate chips with your favorite variety, such as milk chocolate or white chocolate. These muffins are best stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the refrigerator for up to a week. For a vegan option, substitute the egg with a flax egg (1 tablespoon ground flaxseed mixed with 3 tablespoons of water, let sit for 5 minutes).
