½ teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon baking powder
¼ teaspoon salt
½ cup applesauce
½ cup plain low-fat Greek yogurt
⅓ cup white sugar
1 egg
¾ teaspoon vanilla extract
½ cup dark chocolate chips

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line 9 muffin wells with cupcake liners or spray with nonstick spray.
Whisk powder drink mix, flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt together in a medium bowl.
Whisk applesauce, yogurt, sugar, egg, and vanilla extract in a separate large bowl. Add the flour mixture; mix until just combined. Fold in chocolate chips.
