These Double Chocolate Muffins are rich, moist, and packed with chocolate flavor. With a soft, tender crumb and gooey chocolate chips throughout, they’re the ultimate treat for chocolate lovers and perfect for breakfast, dessert, or snacking.

Ingredients

  • 200g plain flour
  • 50g cocoa powder
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp bicarbonate of soda
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 175g caster sugar
  • 2 eggs
  • 250ml milk
  • 100ml vegetable oil
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 200g chocolate chips or chopped chocolate (plus extra for topping)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a muffin tin with paper cases.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, bicarbonate of soda, salt, and sugar.
  3. In another bowl, beat the eggs, then add milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract. Mix well.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
  5. Fold in the chocolate chips or chopped chocolate.
  6. Divide the batter evenly among the muffin cases and sprinkle extra chocolate chips on top.
  7. Bake for 18–20 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  8. Let muffins cool in the tin for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Do not overmix the batter to keep the muffins light and fluffy.
  • Use a mix of dark and milk chocolate chips for deeper flavor.
  • These muffins freeze well; store in an airtight container for up to 3 months.
  • For an extra rich version, add a spoonful of Nutella to the center before baking.
