- I'm not sure if "muffin" is the right thing to call these buggers.... they're something of a cross between a cupcake and a brownie, in my opinion. But muffins they are!
- These decadent muffins were dreamed up last night after craving a double chocolate muffin from Muffin Break. I won't claim that they're as good as MB, but they are almost, and that's enough for me since I made it from stuff I had on hand in the cupboard! Inspired by 3 different recipes I found online, as I was quite surprised no one had come up with a copy cat version for the Muffin Break gem. These were more dense and less fluffy, and went perfectly with our home made (instant) flat whites as well. Enjoy!
Ingredients:
- 1 3/4 cups flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 cup cane sugar
- 1/4 cup cocoa powder
- 100 grams butter
- 1 egg
- 1 cup milk
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
- 3/4 cup dark chocolate chips
Directions:
- Mix flour, baking powder, sugar and cocoa powder together in a medium bowl.
- Melt butter over low heat.
- Combine egg, milk, sour cream and vanilla; then add the melted butter and mix well.
- Add the flour mixture and mix until batter is smooth.
- Add chocolate chips.
- Scoop 1/4 cup batter into greased muffin tin and bake fan forced at 200 C (about 400F) for 10-12 minutes, or until toothpick comes out clean.
- Indulge!
