These Caramel Chocolate Muffins with Coconut Caramel Sauce and an Iced Caramel Mocha helped me get my Monday off to an epic start… and… I am hoping this combo can do the same for ya ~ besides, it isn’t as indulgent as it sounds!
Last week I figured I would take Muffin Monday and turn it into a week of Muffin Mornings!
I mean, how brilliantly delicious would it be to enjoy a muffin EVERYDAY, eh?!
And, not just any muffin, but one of these Caramel Chocolate Muffins flavored with some of the Simply Pure® Caramel Creamer that I had picked up from Walmart.
With an ingredient list that included:
• ground-up rolled oats,
• eggs,
• coconut caramel sauce,
• Simply Pure® Caramel Creamer,
• and, chocolate chips,
…it was almost like I was eating a bowl of oats – don’t you think?
So, at the beginning of last week I whipped up a double batch of these Caramel Chocolate Muffins and some delicious Coconut Caramel Sauce to enjoy during the week for breakfast. My daughter and I were heading to Charleston for most of the week and I figured these would make an easy, tasty and portable breakfast option for us, or, maybe even a light dessert. Which would also mean that we only ate out for 2 other meals.
Of course, being the brilliant genius I am, I ended up remembering that these muffins and sauce were packed up and sitting in the fridge, when I was 168 miles away from home! 😯 As I have this crazy rule of no u-turns or stops other than to fuel-up, I figured we’d just make do. Aaaaannnnnd…all I have to say is that after all those days spent eating out, I couldn’t wait to get home and enjoy a simple and delicious home cooked lunch and dessert!
So, yesterday when we got home, my daughter helped me whip up a quick and easy linner (lunch+dinner). As we had these Caramel Chocolate Muffins in the fridge, my daughter and I figured they would make for a delicious and simple dessert after dinner and they’d be good for breakfast as well. We drizzled these muffins with some Coconut Caramel Sauce, whipped up two mugs of Iced Caramel Mocha with delicious Simply Pure® Caramel Creamer in them, and finished off the last few episodes of Thirteen Reasons Why.
With Simply Pure® Creamers you Never say no to flavor™ as you take your morning cup from basic to boss!
Delicious, Simply Pure Creamers include only 5 simple ingredients with no artificial flavors or colors. When you use Simply Pure, you don’t have to use extra creamer to get great flavor in your everyday cuppa joe – and/or your morning muffin!
After enjoying one of these Caramel Chocolate Muffins with a smidge of Coconut Caramel Sauce and an Iced Caramel Mocha this morning as well, am thinking this Muffin Mornings dealio should last a Month or so – what do you think?

This sounds like the PERFECT start to a week! Love how they’re slightly healthier than some muffins. But they look so good I definitely would have turned the car around if I’d forgotten them!
Haha – Nicola, I wish you had been driving as I sure did miss them 🙂
Thanks so much for stopping by and commenting today.
Why does everyone publish the tempting stuff when I’m dieting? It’s no fair! However, it looks heavenly and I’m sure it tastes even better!
Hahaha! I’m sorry Lisa – these muffins actually aren’t too bad for ya! BTW, thanks so much for stopping by and commenting today.
They look heavenly! I would take muffins as my post workout snack!
Thanks so much Angie – I didn’t think of enjoying them as an after workout snack – next time I surely will though! 🙂
Wow! These recipes look like pure Heaven! The perfect way to cap off a great Easter dinner!
Thanks so much for stopping by and commenting, Hannah. 🙂
Your clicks are so amazing,I am actually drooling over those clicks!
Thanks so much Prasanna!
Wow wow wow! These muffins and mochas are an absolute dream combination! I wish I could grab them both out of my screen right now – they look so delicious! I definitely have to make these recipes for myself over the weekend! <3
Thanks so much Harriet, though am dreaming of that sweet potato chocolate mousse you made 🙂
I’m always so excited by the end of trips to get home and eat things I’ve made myself! These muffins sound delicious! You cannot go wrong with chocolate and caramel!
Yay for homemade food, indeed Ashley – especially after long trips! Thanks so much, my friend!
Muffin mornings should definitely be a thing. If every day started with these caramel chocolate muffins, then it would be a good day! Oh no, you left your muffins at home? Well, at least you had something to look forward to. As much as I LOVE trying different restaurants when travelling, I totally know what you mean – you crave home cooking or something homemade like never before, right?? I just heard about that show and going to have to check it out. How did you like? I have a couple of my favourite shows finishing up and always on the look out for new ones. Married at First Sight is starting soon. Have you heard of that one? Guilty little pleasure of mine 🙂 P.S. Despite leaving these at home, you definitely are quite the genius for having come up with these delicious beauties 😉
Dawn, I’m so glad that I’m not alone in craving some healthy-ish home cooked grub after eating out for several days! There’s nothing like it eh?
Nope, I haven’t watched Married at First Sight – I’m making my way through Chef’s Table very very slowly. 13 Reasons Why wasn’t the best – my daughter was watching it and so I watched along, it lead to a lot of dialogue between the two of us, IMO the show doesn’t portray depression realistically, and the whole concept of the reasons behind her carrying out her suicide just blew my mind cos again IMO it’s not necessarily how/what others do – mental disease/issues are so complex. I wouldn’t recommend it, though I’d recommend This is Us – have you seen it?
BTW – thanks so much for your incredibly thoughtful comment, Dawn. Hope your week has been wonderful so far.
Wow, I think I need to coming over to your house on Mondays! Both the drink and muffins are so enticing! Love your rockin’ blog, by the way! –G
Hahaha – come on over Ginger, it would be such a pleasure to share muffins and mocha with you, my friend! BTW – thanks so much!
They both look ridiculously delicious! I could eat that kind of breakfast every day. #client
Thanks so much Carolyn!
Oh these look fantastic Shashi. And I love the idea of linner (lunch+dinner)! Brilliant.
When I saw these babies pop out at me on Instagram I just had to grab me some!
And yeah, I say muffins everyday. Woohoo! 🙂

Haha – Thanks so much Neil! My daughter is the one who introduced me to the concept of linner – and, these days we seem to linner more and dinner less 🙂
Muffin mornings totally needs to be a real thing. Every.single.day. I love all of the flavors you’ve got going on in there, Shashi…and that’s before we get to the Iced Caramel Mocha! I’m sitting here polishing off the last of my (hot) cup of coffee and thinking how nice it would be to have these muffins and mocha in front of me right now. Perhaps send your drone up? Glad you gals had fun in Charleston…even if the muffins stayed at home. Oops. 🙂 Happy Tuesday, my friend!
Fist bumping you on the muffin-mornings-everyday dealio…only we finished our stash and moved onto carrot cake bars 🙂 David, your drone comment made me just realize – dang, if I had had my drone with us in the car I could have sent it back home to fetch those muffins – though that would involve me reprogramming it from sneaking into your kitchen! GAH! Hoping your Wednesday has been a good one!
Okay, I’m so obviously one of the least cool people you know bc I had no idea about Muffin Monday!!! Lol. But you knew that already. Ha. Meanwhile, love the sound of Muffin Mornings!!! It would be beyond brilliant to have a fresh muffin every morning–esp if it comes with these amazing iced caramel mochas!! WOW. Just looking at these pics is making me wish I were your neighbor–why isn’t that a thing right now?? 😉 Totally drooling over these my friend! Wishing you a happy week ahead! 🙂 xoxoxo
Haha – Demeter, you’d have to steal The Least Cool person title from me if you want it 🙂 BTW, I only found out about muffin mondays because I came across the hashtag on IG – I wish you were my neighbor too, we could research hashtags on IG while enjoying these muffins and mocha and maybe one of your paleo candy treats?
Hoping your week has been wonderful, my friend!
Oh wow wow wow!!! When I saw those muffins and that Mocha, I was drooling like crazy and craving it so badly. We do love muffin mornings, so comforting. I enjoy their creamers, so delicious.
Very tempting post my friend.❤️❤️
xx
You are too kind, thanks so much Asha! Hope you and your boys have a wonderful weekend.
Awesome — what a dreamy combination, Shashi. These muffins and mochas are a wow combo! Love how delicious they look and sound, nothing can go wrong with chocolate and caramel. I would love to wake up to these every morning. So, I will have bake these beauties this weekend. Can’t wait to try them. <3
Thanks so much Anu – I sure hope you end up liking them, if you try them. 🙂
We do linner a lot, too. Anyway, great looking muffins — loaded with flavor. I couldn’t resist these! Nor would I want to. 🙂
Thanks so much, John! 🙂
Oh my gosh that Iced Caramel Mocha is making me drool! I had no idea there was such a thing as Muffin Monday but Muffin Mornings is an even better idea!
Haha! Thanks Meg! Here’s hoping your weekend is filled with muffin mornings, my friend 🙂
I love your muffin WEEK!!! Genius. Sorry they didn’t make it to Charleston, but were nice to return to I’m sure. Had they (and I) made it to Charleston – I know you would have shared. Right right right? 🙂 Hope you had a great trip. Gotta try this delicious Simply Pure – sounds utterly delish. XOXO
A caramel start to the day? I could defo get on board with that!! I think I’m in the minority but I much prefer muffins over cupcakes and these certainly give me all the more reason to! I bet the caramel creamer would also taste divine stirred into hot coffee!
They are look awesome to me! I must try this recipe when I have time 🙂
