Dulce De Leche Coconut Chocolate Muffins

Just submitted my monthly budget report so at least I can breath some air now lol. Today should be quite relax for me so I am able to visit my favourite blogs after post this up :D.  After that, I will need to start working on the planning of my year end trip again, hope to be able to settle everything by this week. If not, dear husband will say I like to "mo" lol.

These are using one of my favourite recipe to whip up in different variety. Recently I have boiled a few cans of dulce de leche as give-away and keep 2 cans for myself, just nice, use it in this recipe.

Recipe modified from here and here.

1/4 tsp baking soda
35g cocoa powder
1/4 tsp vanilla powder (use 1/2 tsp if you are using vanilla extract/essence and put under ingredients

60g dessicated coconut
10 tbsp dulce de leche
