About
It is always a pleasant surprise when you encounter unexpected, harmonious flavor combinations. I remember the first time I had chocolate-coated candied orange peel – it was a revelation! Chocolate’s silky, creamy taste meets the sweet and sour citrus notes of orange to create a culinary symphony. These muffins capture that chocolaty orange combination.
