1 ½ cups semisweet chocolate chips
¼ cup coconut oil
1 (15 ounce) can chickpeas (garbanzo beans), drained
4 eggs
½ cup white sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease 12 muffin cups or line with paper liners.
  • Melt chocolate chips and coconut oil in the top of a double boiler over simmering water, stirring frequently and scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching.
