Recipe: White and milk chocolate muffins
My sweet tooth has definitely been alerted after reading this BBC article on sweets. It questions the nostalgia/novelty surrounding our most loved sweets and I for one, have a strong craving for sour boiled sweets now!
Therefore for all you chocolate lovers, I thought I would share a recipe that I have perfected. It is really simple and takes about 20 minutes preparation time and 30 minutes cooking in the oven (total time = 50 minutes). Perfect for a lazy Sunday afternoon or mid-week treat.
Ingredients
- 2 eggs
- 200g caster sugar
- 130g plain flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- pinch of salt
- 50g cocoa powder
- 160ml whole milk
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 160g unsalted butter
- 70g white chocolate
- 50g milk chocolate (or I use Galaxy Counters)
- 12 hole-muffin tray with paper cases
- Preheat the oven to 170°C
- Mix the egg and sugar until well combined and pale in colour. You can use either a handheld or electric whisk.
- In a different bowl sift the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and add the pinch of salt.
- In another bowl combine the milk and vanilla extract.
- Gradually add the two mixtures to the egg mixture. Beat until all the ingredients are fully mixed together.
- Stir in the melted butter.
- Chop the white chocolate into small chunks and half the Galaxy Counters (or chop milk chocolate). Then add all the chocolate to the mixture.
- Using an ice cream scoop, add one scoop to each case and bake in the oven for about 30 minutes. Tip: Ice cream scoops are ideal for ensuring each paper case contains a similar amount of cake/muffin mix. It saves using two or three spoons to scrape the mixture. Simple and easy giving a professional finish to your end baking results.
- After 30 minutes check to see if the sponge bounces back when touched and use a skewer to see if all the mixture is cooked.
- Leave to cool before turning out onto a wire rack.
- Enjoy your sweet, moist muffins avec a cup of tea!
