Orange Chocolate Chip Bread – Orange & Chocolate combine for a flavorful & delicious quick bread. 

I originally make this bread to take to my and Jamie’s MOPS (Mother of Preschoolers) group and it smelled so good while it was baking that I joked with Jamie that the ladies at MOPS didn’t really need the bread! 

I sneaked a few bites while I taking pictures and I was even more convinced that maybe the whole loaf should just stay at my house.  But of course, I wasn’t going to be that selfish!  And then the next morning came and I ran off to MOPS and COMPLETELY FORGOT the orange chocolate chip bread on the counter.  And since MOPS is a half-hour away from my house, I ended up bringing donut holes & muffins from the store!!

So my MOPS ladies can not vouch for how good this bread is but let me tell you it’s delicious!!  And don’t worry I didn’t eat the entire loaf by myself, I did share with my kids and my mom!
