So, I gave this easy recipe a try and yes, this gonna be one of my favourite muffin recipe, or the only one? I can survive with only one recipe of chocolate muffin if that has to be this one!
Soft, moist and chocolaty equal delicious yummy muffin. I need nothing else. Oh, perhaps one more thing. Coffee, please! :)
Recipe is from Sharon of Delishar
What you need:
2 cups all purpose flour (original recipe used 1 cup wholemeal and 1 cup plain flour)
3/4 cup castor sugar
1/2 cup cocoa powder (I used Valrhona)
1 tsp espresso powder (I used Nescafe Gold)
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup chocolate chips
1 cup Greek yoghurt (I used light)
1 egg
1/2 cup + 2 tbsp fresh milk
1/2 cup vegetable oil (I used rice bran)
1/2 tsp vanilla paste
more chocolate chips for topping
Method:
- Preheat oven to 180degC. Line muffin pan
- Add in flour, sugar, cocoa, espresso powder, baking soda, salt and chocolate chips. Whisk well in a large bowl
- In another bowl, whisk well yoghurt, egg, milk, oil and vanilla
- Pour wet to dry ingredients. Mix with spatula til just combined when the batter is lumpy. Do not overmix!
- Spoon batter into the muffin liners (I spooned about 1/4 heaped cup for each muffin). Sprinkle chocolate chips on top
- Bake for 20mins til skewer comes out with few moist crumbs
- Let cool slightly in the pan for about 10mins and then transfer to cooling rack to cool completely
Can you see how moist this muffin is? *drool*
