Cappuccino Chip Muffins - Or "Cliff's Favourite" as we call 'em

Yet another of the recipes I make for Extreme Outreach Coffee House.  If you love coffee you might want to try one of these.

Cappuccino Chip Muffins

2 cups flour
3/4 cup white sugar
2 1/2 tsp baking powder
2 tsp ground coffee (espresso on fine grind)
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1 cup milk
1/2 cup oil
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 tsp vanilla
3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.  Grease 12 muffin cups.

In large bowl, stir together flour, sugar, baking powder, espresso coffee powder, salt and cinnamon.  In another bowl, stir together milk, oil, egg and vanilla until blended.  Make a well in center of dry ingredients; add milk mixture and stir just to combine.  Stir in chocolate chips.

Spoon batter into prepared muffin cups; bake 15 to 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.  Remove muffins from oven and cool 5 minutes before removing from the muffin tin.  Serve warm or cool completely.  They freeze well too.
