My, oh my, what a dark, deeply mysterious, fantastically oozy and chocolaty muffin this is. Since we’re dealing with a chocolate baked good here, the THM Gentle Sweet gives the best result. The trick is not to over nuke or over bake... keep things a little molten for the win! This recipe is in the "Sweet Treats - Quick Single Muffin" section of the Trim Healthy Mama Cookbook, page 274.

Instructions
- Crack egg into coffee cup or oven safe ramekin and whisk well with your fork.
- Add all other ingredients except optional berries and mix very well with a fork (a mini workout for your arm). Add berries (raspberries or strawberries are perfect), then stir gently into batter. Alternatively, you can leave out berries and use 1 Tbsp of water.
- For microwave version, cook on high for only 40 seconds, if using only water. If including berries, it will need closer to 1 minute.
- The muffin should still be gooey in the center when you take it out.
- Oven versions should take between 8-12 minutes at 350. Take out of the oven before the top of the muffin is completely set.
- Add an optional sprinkle of THM Gentle Sweet over top of cooked muffin.
