Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a muffin tin or apply paper liners and set aside.
In a food processor, combine all ingredients but the chocolate chips. Process on high for 30 seconds, or until there are no more lumps. Stir in half of the chocolate chips (1/4 cup) using a spatula.
Transfer the batter into the prepared muffin tin. Top the batter with the remaining chocolate chips.
Place in the oven and bake for 17-20 minutes. Check with a toothpick for doneness. Pierce the center of the muffin with a toothpick, if it comes out clean they are done. Allow to cool for 5 minutes. Then remove from pan and place on a cooling rack.
