So this week has been jam-packed and each day went by fast. I laughed, I cried, I felt cranky but then I moved on and looked at things in a positive way.
Weekend is around the corner. Yay! I have a wedding to attend on Saturday, we are celebrating my niece’s birthday right before the wedding and maybe hosting dinner for some YOG French athletes.
Recipe for the Triple Chocolate Muffins
Ingredients
- 190 g butter
- 1/2 cup caster sugar
- 1/2 can of evaporated milk
- 40g baking chocolate
- 1/2 cup bittersweet chocolate chips
- 2 eggs, lightly beaten
- 1 cup plain flour
- 1/2 cup cocoa powder
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Method
- Pre-heat oven to 200 C.
- Combine caster sugar, evaporated milk, vanilla extract, butter and baking chocolate in a saucepan. Stir over low heat until sugar is dissolved and butter and chocolate is melted.
- Set aside and let cool a little. Add the beaten eggs into the slightly warm mixture and stir till well mixed.
- Sift the flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and baking soda into a large mixing bowl then pour the egg mixture over the flour and stir till well mixed (cake batter should be runny). Add the handful of bittersweet chocolate chips and mix.
- Line and grease muffin pans.
- Pour the batter into prepared pan. Bake for about 15-20 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean.
Enjoy :) And remember not to eat too many!
