Chocolate mashed potato muffins | vegan

Do you ever find yourself with far too much mashed potato?

Despite us being a family of five we never seem to get through all the mashed potato. I inevitably make too much.

And while it's great for shepherd's pies and the like, sometimes it's good to have something a little different.
