Cookie Dough Mini Muffins


Graduation Time!  

I’ve been invited to a plethora of graduation parties these past few weeks. And yesterday’s was really fun: it was a brunch party. I decided to make mini muffins, because muffins are quintessential brunch fare, and because mini muffins are so dang cute!

I also brought a date to the party.

His name is Muttsee, and I’ve had him my entire life. (It was a pajama-themed brunch, and I love getting into the spirit of theme parties. You can bet I wore my pajamas!)

Question of the Day:

Growing up, did you have a favorite stuffed animal or baby blanket?

Coming soon: ice cream, pancakes, and a Funfetti version of this.

    These look absolutely amazing. mini muffins are 100000x better than regular sized ones. even though they’re technically the same… they just taste better to me, haha.

      They’re just cuter, right? Like baby puppies!

    I had my “string Blankie” for years! I was about 6 yrs old before I gave it up (or should I say I was forced to throw it away?!) It was literally made out of strings and it was so soft! But….because of the strings….it shed A LOT 😛

    Yum! looks tasty. I guess I haven’t grown up yet, because my stuffed animal moose still sleeps with me and has a facebook page. hahaha.

    1. Chocolate-Covered Katie says:

      I love that it has a facebook page! Too fun!

  4. Rachel @ Eat, Learn, Discover! says:

    mmm bite size desserts (or anything on a stick) are the best for parties!

    As a child I had a baby blanket (named Pink, for the color. original, i know). Still have it, but she’s most likely stored in the closet with my other baby things.

    I think that using beans in sweet treats is a brilliant idea, not stupid!!
    Oh, I loved stuffed animals, I had tons of them. I even had a stufffed bear who could talk 🙂 I know it is not that impressive now, but it was like 20 years ago, and in that time, it was SOMETHING :))

    Awww Muttsee helloooo!! I had a HUGE stuffed animal collection- loved them all!! Sadly when we got Buddy he stole them all one by one and buried them in the garden…but I managed to hide a few from him hehe! 😉

    And I can’t believe someone said that was ‘stupid’. I really dislike that word anyway, but that is RUDE! They clearly haven’t tried your amazing blondies 🙂

  7. Cara @ EAT. PRAY. RUN. says:

    Mini muffins = even better because you can eat more and not feel SO bad about it 😉

  8. Emilia says:

    I excite in the fact that by eating desserts with beans in them, I’m getting more protein and nutrients! Or, it’s just another reason to eat one of my favorite foods: beans 🙂 I’m weird, though, knowing my favorite foods are kale, beans, tofu, nut butter….

    1. Chocolate-Covered Katie says:

      And coconut, right? 😉

  9. Alyssa Monique says:

    OH MY GOODNESS, THESE LOOK BOMB! 😀 I love little muffins xoxo, delish!

  10. Running With Mascara says:

    I love the idea of using beans in desserts! You’re right – it’s so much more prevalent than we think!
