Photo: Chocolate Chocolate-Chip Muffins Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 2 tablespoons best quality cocoa powder
- 3/4 cup superfine sugar
- 3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips, plus 1/4 cup for sprinkling
- 1 cup milk
- 1/3 cup plus 2 teaspoons vegetable oil
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Directions
Special equipment: Muffin tin with paper muffin cases
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.

these were excellent but needed one more tablespoon of cocoa powder.

I agree with other reviewers on the salt aspect. I got all the usual suspects out before even reading the recipe and salt was on the counter waiting to be used. I should've listened to my gut on that one. I hardly ever do a true measurement on chocolate chips, so I have no complaints there. I also threw in cinnamon. Oh and I rarely time. At 400 degrees, my stoneware muffin pan turned them out beautifully as I eyeballed rather than ruisk burnt (because 400 sounded scary, as did the mini muffin tin. I made 9 muffins and 36 minis. They were greeted warmly by my four year old. And I'm not appalled. May do again with more cocoa and definitely salt.

I didn't start reading reviews until after these were in the oven. At least I cut the baking time down to 16min so they aren't overdone. The shorter baking time made for good texture.
When putting them together I thought, "no salt??" but went with it. Wish I'd added a little salt. They are so bland. The bites with choc chips are good, but otherwise pretty blah. I've never made muffins without salt. If this is an oversight can't someone fix it?
Hope the kids like them.
