Chocolate Delight Muffins Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375°F. Place paper baking cup in each of 12 regular-size muffin cups. In medium bowl, mix buttermilk, butter and egg with spoon until blended. Stir in flours, brown sugar, cocoa, baking soda, vanilla and salt just until moistened. Stir in chocolate chips.
• Divide batter evenly among muffin cups.
• Bake 15 to 20 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 5 minutes; remove from pan. Serve warm or cool.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Line the muffin tin with paper liners and lightly coat with cooking spray. (This may seem like overkill, but otherwise the muffins will stick.)
• Whisk the flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. In another medium bowl, lightly whisk the eggs, then whisk in the butter, brown sugar, milk, oil and vanilla.
• Quickly fold the wet ingredients into the dry with a rubber spatula. Just before the batter comes together, fold in the chocolate chips¿don¿t mix the batter too much or the muffins will be tough. Divide the batter among the muffin cups (1/4 cup of batter per muffin). Bake until a tester inserted in the center comes out clean, about 25 minutes. Turn the muffins out of the tins, cool on a rack. Serve slightly warm with jam.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Put the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cocoa, sugar, and 3/4 cup of the chocolate chips into a large bowl. Pour all the liquid ingredients into a measuring jug. Mix the dry and wet ingredients together, remembering that a lumpy batter makes the best muffins. Spoon into the prepared muffin cases. Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup chocolate chips on top and then bake for 20 minutes or until the muffins are dark, risen and springy.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 180C and line 12 cup muffin tin with papers.
• In a large bowl sift together the flour, sugars, cocoa, baking powder, bicarbonate and salt.
• In another bowl whisk together the eggs, sour cream and vanilla until blended.
• In a third bowl, using a hand mixer, beat together the melted butter and oil until just blended then beat in the water (yes this really works).
• Add the dry ingredients to the oil mixture all at once and mix on low speed.
• Add the egg mixture and beat until everything is blended well.
• Fill each muffin cup 3/4 full and bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean.
• Cool on wire rack while making icing.
• -- To make the icing --
• Melt the chocolate in the microwave (2-3 mins on medium) and let in cool slightly.
• In a large bowl beat the butter until it is soft and creamy and then add the sifted icing sugar and beat again until everything is light and fluffy.
• Gently add the vanilla and chocolate and beat until smooth.
• Ice the cupcakes with a spatula or piping bag.

Steps:

• Combine the first 7 ingredients.
• In a separate bowl, mix remaining ingredients.
• Add both together, stirring out any clumps.
• Bake at 350 for about 20 minutes.
