Chunky Chocolate Muffins Recipes

CHOCOLATE CHIP MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Line a muffin pan with muffin liners, or spray pan with cooking spray, and set aside.

CHUNKY MONKEY CUPCAKES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and line a 12-cup muffin tin with liners.
• Whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in a bowl.
• Mash bananas with milk and vanilla extract until smooth.
• Mix butter and sugar together with a spatula until creamy. Whisk in eggs, 1 at a time, then whisk in the banana mixture. Add walnuts, chocolate, and the flour mixture. Mix batter with a spatula until no dry spots remain.
• Fill muffin cups to the top with batter, then distribute excess batter as needed. Tap pan against the counter to expel any air bubbles.
• Bake in the preheated oven until tops are lightly browned, about 25 minutes. Let cupcakes cool to room temperature, at least 20 minutes.
• Pour hot cream over chocolate chips in a bowl. Let sit for a few minutes, then whisk, increasing speed gradually, until color is uniform. Spread ganache over the cooled cupcakes and garnish with banana chips. Refrigerate to firm up the frosting, if desired.

CHOCOLATE CHUNK MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Line 14 (1/2-cup) muffin cups with paper liners.
• Melt unsweetened chocolate and 1/2 cup semisweet chunks in a metal bowl set over a pan of barely simmering water, stirring. Remove bowl from heat and cool slightly.
• Whisk together flour, baking soda, and salt. Whisk vanilla into milk in another bowl.
• Beat butter with brown sugar in a large bowl with an electric mixer until pale and fluffy, then add eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Add melted chocolate and beat well. Mix in flour and milk alternately in batches, scraping down side of bowl and beginning and ending with flour. Fold in remaining chunks.
• Divide batter among lined muffin cups (fill empty cups halfway with water). Bake in upper and lower thirds of oven, switching position of pans halfway through baking, until a tester comes out clean, 22 to 25 minutes total. Cool muffins in pans on racks 15 minutes, then invert onto racks to cool.

CHUNKY CHOCOLATE MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200C/400F/Gas 5, 15 minutes before baking. Line a muffin or deep bun tin try with 7 paper muffin cases or oil the individual compartments well. Place the plain chocolate in a large heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of very hot water and stir occasionally until melted. Remove the bowl and leave to cool for a few minutes.
• Stir the sugar and butter into the melted chocolate, then the milk, vanilla essence and egg. Sift in the flour, baking powder and salt together. Add the chopped white chocolate, then using a metal spoon, fold together quickly, taking care not to overmix.
• Divide the mixture between the paper cases, piling it up in the centre. Bake on the centre shelf of the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until well risen and firm to the touch.
• Lightly dust the tops of the muffins with icing sugar as soon as they come out of the oven, if using. Leave the muffins in the tins for a few minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. Serve warm or cold.
