Double Chocolate Apricot Muffins image

Adapted from "125 Best Chocolate Recipes". Delicious chocolate muffins with dried apricots (you can substitute for dried cranberries or cherries) if you wish!). I replaced half of the vegetable oil by light sour cream to lighten them a bit. Makes 12 big muffins.

The muffins were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll reduce the amount of sugar next time.

The muffins were a bit dry for my taste. I think I'll add some extra butter or oil next time.

These muffins are a great way to use up leftover apricots. I also added some chopped walnuts for extra flavor.
