Double Chocolate Raspberry Muffins

Super moist and chocolately muffins bursting with gooey chocolate chips and sweet and tangy raspberries. I was drawn to this recipe as soon as I saw that it called for fresh raspberries.

I am a sucker for any recipe that uses fresh fruit. Of course you can use frozen raspberries, but with all of the fresh raspberries in season right now, why would you? 😉

These muffins give us the perfect excuse to have a little chocolate in the morning! What could be better? 😀
