Whenever I think “chocolate chip,” I think cookie. But, this mini chocolate chip muffin loaf is so fluffy and flavorful that it’ll be a nice change of pace for your next bake 🙂
I made these as a gift with purchase for Cookie Cazimi and I actually had someone want to buy one by itself! But, it wasn’t for sale lol.
At this point, I’ve made mini lemon loaves, mini Zebra Cake bars, and mini chocolate cakes in these mini silicone loaf pans that I’ve nailed how much batter I like in each cavity.
While my Cake Pan Converter Spreadsheet does most of the work, every recipe can use more or less batter depending on both the science and preference of the recipe developer.
So, one cake could end up thicker than another even though everything is scaled evenly across the board from the same cake pan size.
When I made this recipe, I scaled the recipe based off of the total weight instead of just the batter weight so my mini chocolate chip muffin loaves are a little shorter than yours will be.
Chocolate chips are heavy!
This recipe has been increased by 25% from that of the mini chocolate chip loaf you see in these images.

My Verdict
Overall, I think these mini chocolate chip loaves moved well. I did have leftovers but I do think it was a slower market day and I was able to give them away to fellow vendors to enjoy.
I’m not sure if I’ll bring this back, however. Not because it’s not delicious as I stated earlier, but because it’s not a huge mover. Yes, someone did express interest in purchasing it on its own but it doesn’t have that “wow, I gotta have it” like a lemon loaf or even cinnamon streusel coffee cake does!
But, who knows? Maybe I’ll ignore what I just said and offer it up again anyway lol.
