Molten Chocolate Muffins: An Irresistible Treat
Molten chocolate muffins are perfect for chocolate lovers. Soft on the outside and gooey on the inside, they are ideal for a sweet snack, a quick dessert, or a comforting treat. Here’s a simple recipe to make these delights.
Ingredients (for 8 muffins)
• 150 g of dark baking chocolate
• 100 g of butter
• 120 g of granulated sugar
• 2 eggs
• 80 g of flour
• 1 teaspoon of baking powder
• 1 pinch of salt
• 8 squares of dark chocolate (or milk chocolate, based on your preference)Instructions
- Prepare the chocolate base • Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
• Melt the dark chocolate and butter using a double boiler or in the microwave (in 30-second intervals to prevent burning). Stir until smooth and homogeneous. - Mix the ingredients • In a mixing bowl, whisk the eggs and sugar until the mixture becomes pale.
• Add the melted chocolate and mix well.
• Gradually fold in the flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt. Stir until you achieve a smooth, lump-free batter. - Assemble the muffins • Spoon one tablespoon of batter into each muffin mold (greased or lined with paper cases).
• Place a square of chocolate in the center of each mold.
• Cover with another spoonful of batter, ensuring the chocolate square is fully concealed. - Bake • Bake in the oven for 10–12 minutes. Keep a close eye on them: the muffins should remain soft in the center for a molten effect.
- Cool • Remove the muffins from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes before taking them out of the molds. Serve warm for a molten center, or allow them to cool completely for a firmer texture.
