Chocolate Coffee Cricket Muffins
These delicious and moist chocolate coffee cricket muffins are baked with everything we love most for the morning: coffee and chocolate of course! The ingredient that sets these muffins into a class above all the rest is the cricket powder blended into the muffin batter.
