CHOCOLATE CHIP, COCONUT ALMOND MUFFINS

Chocolate Chip, Coconut Almond Muffins image

This recipe is a staple in our house, since my kids would hate me if I ever stopped making it! I make at least once a week to keep them happy! It goes great with scrambled eggs or just by themselves. Sometimes I will double the chocolate chips and use 1/2 cup instead of 1/4 and it makes it a little more gooey.
