Yogurt Muffins

I had a bunch of plain yogurt I had to use up quickly so I made some muffins.  It's a pretty tasty muffin- not the most healthy but not the worst either.  I told my daughter it was a treat and we had one after our breakfast, as opposed to AS our breakfast.

Ingredients:

1 cup plain yogurt (sour cream would work, too)
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 cup butter
2 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup sugar
1/3 cup chocolate chips

Garnish
1/4 cup pecans or walnuts, chopped
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350°F Grease muffin pan. Set aside.

In a bowl, mix yogurt and baking soda. Set aside.

In another bowl, beat butter. Add eggs, one at a time, then vanilla. Set aside.

In another large bowl, mix flour, baking powder, salt and sugar. Add the egg mixture and then pour the mixture of yogurt, stirring just to moisten the dry ingredients. Incorporate the chocolate chips. Stir a little bit. Pour in the muffin pan.

Mix all ingredients of the garnish. Distribute on the muffins. Bake in oven 25-35 minutes. (The original recipe says 30-35, but there was a note that said check after 20-25 and it's only been a week, but I can't remember if it was closer to 25 or 35. So check after 25.)
