Steve's Chocolate PB2 Muffins

We have a close friend who was in an accident about six weeks ago. We go and visit him every weekend to see how much progress he has made, and I must say his recovery is remarkable. We were pleased to find out that he can now eat real food and loves chocolate peanut butter muffins - so I made some for him tonight! We are constantly thinking about Steve and his family and will continue to support them in any way we can. "Team Steve Strong."
