Chocolate pistachio surprise muffins

One last green recipe for St. Patrick's Day? I say yes.

Here my chocolate pistachio surprise muffins 💁‍♀️

These treats are almost entirely made of Kellogg's Coco Pops and the texture is more similar to a brownie than a muffin.

The green center is made of pistachio chocolates and they are garnished with chopped pistachio.

I loved them, it was the last recipe I was able to taste before the diet and it was amazing 🤩

RECIPE NOTES:

• The consistency of the batter might look a bit weird since it's almost only made of cereal but it's gonna be fine when baking, don't worry! It will be more like a brownie than a regular muffin.

• You can definitely use any chocolate you have on hand if you don't mind having a green center, but of course it will look less festive and cool ahah
