Double Chocolate Muffins

It’s Thursday morning once again and this week I’m making Double Chocolate Muffins. These are unreal, delicious, moist, very quick to do and like I say in the video, your kids are gonna absolutely mill them 👌🏻😋

Recipe

100g | ½ cup of granulated sugar
100g | ½ cup of soft packed brown sugar
3 small eggs or 2 medium
100ml | ⅓ cup + 1tbsp of oil
310ml | 1¼ cup of buttermilk
210g | 1¾ cup of plain flour
65g | ⅔ cup of unsweetened cocoa powder
2 tsp of baking powder
½ tsp baking soda
½ tsp of salt
200g | 1⅓ cups of bittersweet chocolate chips
50g | ⅓ cup of chocolate chips to go on top

Buttermilk substitute - Just add about 1.5 tbsps of vinegar or lemon juice to some full milk. Stir and let it stand for about 5-10 minutes

You can also use an ice-cream scoop if you have one. I know for a fact that everyone has a tablespoon so I used that

A few tips - If you find that the chocolate chips sink try using smaller chips. You can also toss them in some cocoa powder before adding them. Another option would be to thicken the batter by using 250g of flour instead of 210g

Bake at 210 C for 5 minutes then lower the heat to 190 C and bake for a further 15 minutes 👌🏻

Fan Oven - 190 C for 5 min. 170 C for 15 min.

Give them a go and let me know how you get on!

Have a great weekend!

All the best

I've been binge watching your videos for a few weeks but I didn't actually make anything until today. I made these and I think they could be a little sweeter but still so moist, soft and delicious😋. I don't have a large muffin tin so I made a dozen cupcakes then baked the rest of the batter in a loaf pan. Thank you for this recipe and I will definitely be baking more. I'm just gonna subscribe now

[edoardotomassoni]

I made these for supper, for a main course, of course. Only 2 left for breakfast.

[kricketsouthwick]

Gorgeous! Cannot wait to make these. I have to ask tho... aren't these basically unfrosted cupcakes, except that by calling them muffins, we get to eat them for breakfast? 😅

[susanclayton]

Did he say 230 grams of flour? Or 210 gram ?

Love this recipe Chris. God bless you, I have got back into baking again. All down to you making it sooo easy . I know that you are a Dub but what part of Dublin are you from. I'm from Edenmore myself. Living in ballyjamesduff in cavan now. Miss the old place a lot. Me husband says I need to have a go at your turnover but I only have dried yeast.

You lost me with the chocolate chips. They are never great chocolate and now most companies make them hard waxy and cheap. Back in the day estles actually made a decent product. If you must Ad chunks of hard chocolate(after they cool” use left over candy from Christmas or Easter. Call dad hard solid pieces of maids in the box. But really why would you want to ruin the texture of a soft muffin. I may try this recipe leaving out those waxy chocolate chips. Yes you could buy expensive French or Swiss chocolate but that would defeat the point. The only thing chocolate chips work in chocolate chip cookies and you’re better to buy a block of your own chocolate remaking them and break it up into unusual pieces. This is a picture of killer bugaboo mine and it grows worse each year as well these so-called chocolate companies continue to turn out cheaper and cheaper imitations of what was every day good chocolate Yeah I have had my rent so let’s get back to the handsome chef doing the cooking. Or I should say handsome Baker.
