Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients:
- 1 3/4 cups plain flour
- 7 tablespoons cocoa powder
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
Wet Ingredients:
- 3/4 cup salted butter, room temperature
- 2/3 cup sugar
- 2 eggs
- 2/3 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla sugar or extract
Chocolate Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 cups white chocolate chips, divided
Instructions
- Prepare the oven by heating to 200C (400F) and line a muffin tray with paper cases.
- Combine dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl, creating a rich chocolate base with most of the chocolate chips folded through the mixture.
- Using an electric mixer, whip butter and sugar until the mixture becomes fluffy and pale, creating a smooth foundation.
- Incorporate eggs individually into the butter mixture, ensuring each is fully integrated before adding the next.
- Gently alternate adding dry ingredients and milk to the wet mixture, stirring carefully to maintain a light texture without overmixing.
- Distribute the batter evenly across the prepared muffin cases, generously sprinkling the remaining chocolate chips on top for extra indulgence.
- Slide the tray into the preheated oven and bake for approximately 15 minutes, watching for a set texture and golden edges.
- Remove from the oven and allow muffins to rest briefly, letting them cool slightly to enhance their rich, chocolatey flavor before serving.
Notes
- Check chocolate chip distribution by gently folding them into batter to prevent sinking to bottom during baking.
- Use room temperature eggs and butter for smoother, more consistent muffin texture and better ingredient integration.
- Swap regular flour with gluten-free blend for celiac or gluten-sensitive individuals without compromising rich chocolate flavor.
- Control sweetness by reducing sugar or using dark chocolate chips for more intense, less sugary muffins perfect for adult palates.
