Recipe Ingredients
- 2 eggs, at room temperature
- 165 millilitres milk, at room temperature
- 120 grams unsalted butter, melted
- 100 grams caster sugar
- 250 grams plain flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- pinch of salt
- 120 grams milk chocolate
Methods
1. Preheat the Oven and Prepare the Muffin Tin
Preheat the oven to 180 °C (350 °F) and grease a standard 12-hole muffin tin, or line it with muffin liners for easy removal.
2. Weigh the Ingredients and Chop the Chocolate
Gather all your ingredients and have them ready on the counter. Chop 120 grams of chocolate into small pieces.
3. Make the Batter
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and a pinch of salt. In a medium bowl, beat the eggs with sugar until light and fluffy. Gradually add the melted butter to the egg mixture, continuing to beat at low speed. Pour in the milk and stir briefly to combine.
Carefully incorporate the wet ingredients into the large bowl with the flour mixture, stirring until just combined. Gently fold in ⅔ of the chopped chocolate using a spatula, ensuring even distribution throughout the batter.
4. Bake
Divide the batter evenly among the prepared muffin liners. Sprinkle the remaining chopped chocolate over the tops of the muffins for an extra burst of chocolatey goodness.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the centre of a muffin comes out clean.
Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring them to a wire rack to cool completely.
5. Serve
For an extra touch of sweetness, dust the cooled muffins with a light sprinkle of icing sugar before serving.
Additional Tips
Experiment with different types of chocolate to create unique flavour variations, such as dark chocolate or white chocolate.
Add chopped nuts or dried fruits to the batter to give it more texture and flavour.
These muffins are best enjoyed fresh the day they are made, but they can be stored in an airtight container for up to three days.
Serve the chocolate muffins alongside a steaming cup of coffee or a refreshing glass of milk for the ultimate treat.
