2 1/2 cups whole wheat pastry flour
1/2 cup light brown sugar
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
WET INGREDIENTS
8 ounces cream cheese softened
1 1/4 cups milk

2 teaspoons vanilla extract
GOODIES
1 1/4 cups mini semisweet chocolate chips

1. Preheat the oven to 400°F.

2. Sift the dry ingredients together in a large bowl. Add the goodies and stir to combine.

3. Using the purée blade of a food processor, cream the cream cheese and sour cream. Add the remaining wet ingredients and blend. (If you do not have a food processor, use a hand-held mixer at medium speed.)

4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture. Stir just until mixed. Do not overstir.

5. Spoon the batter into a greased or papered muffin tin. Fill each cup nearly to the top.

6. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes.
