Espresso Banana Muffins


As I am sure you all remember about our Banana Cooler, well this is basically the same thing but in chewable form:-) We Love these delicious muffins, and just because they have coffee in them doesn't mean we skipped our morning coffee. By all means NO! I think we probably drank more coffee then usual. One bite.................. and it will give you more cravings for more of that coffee flavor:-)
