One Bowl Chocolate Chip Muffins

The weather here in New York has been particularly gloomy and unseasonably cool so the other day I decided to spend the afternoon baking with Patrick.  He loves to pull his “baking chair” up to the counter and help me measure and mix the ingredients.  We agreed on these one bowl chocolate chip muffins which were so easy to make and were conveniently ready just as the boys were getting off the school bus.  I followed this recipe but replaced the butter with coconut oil and substituted sugar with 3/4 cup of agave nectar.  I also decided to forgo the sugar topping because the chocolate chips are sweet enough.  They taste the best right out of the oven with a tall glass of  milk (or in my case, with a generous cup of green tea).
