Place pieces of dark chocolate in a saucepan, pour in milk and add butter.

Place on heat and bring until smooth, stirring occasionally. Bring the mixture to a boil over low heat.

In a bowl, combine sour cream with chicken eggs.

Pour the creamy chocolate mixture into the dry ingredients, stirring continuously.

Then add sour cream and eggs.

Place the pan with the dough in the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes at 180-200 degrees, until dry.

You can check the readiness with a wood splinter - if it is dry, traditional chocolate muffins are ready.

Chocolate muffins

The muffins, although moderate in size, are full of texture and flavor. It’s easy to prepare them at home; the result will warm the heart of any gourmet, both figuratively and literally – small chocolate cupcakes are usually served warm.

Muffins - a seemingly simple pastry - have captured the hearts and stomachs of a multimillion-dollar audience around the world. With all this, almost all users do not fully understand the difference between them and their “closest relatives” - muffins and cupcakes. Who are the members of this trio? Cupcake (from English cake) – cake; cupcake (from English) – a tiny cake (cupcake); muffins (from the English maffin) are a type of cake.

“Big Brother” is a large cupcake with raisins, candied fruits and other sweet additions. This is baked, for example, for Christmas. But it wouldn’t be a mistake to call small cupcakes in silicone molds exactly that. The “little brothers” in this trio are cupcakes. In terms of their structure and taste, they are identical to cupcakes and muffins, but differ in their miniature size. In addition, they are usually decorated with cream or icing, which makes them look more like cakes. And, in the end, our main character is muffins. This is the name given to a type of cupcake. They are baked in portioned molds with various insides, salty or sweet - it all depends on taste preferences. Muffins are usually served warm with butter.

The confusion in the titles does not change the essence of the baked goods: they are tasty, beautiful and very easy to prepare at home. Naturally, you can buy muffins in the store without any problems. But the property, unfortunately, raises doubts. In addition, it is enough to spend a little time in the kitchen and bring to life one of the countless recipes. For example, making chocolate muffins interspersed with dark chocolate pieces is a real delicacy! And then immediately deal with chocolate fondants, what do you think?)

• sugar 100 gr
• baking powder 2 teaspoons
• egg 3 pieces
• instant coffee 2 tbsp. spoons
• cocoa 2 tbsp. spoons
• dark chocolate 150 gr

Beat the eggs into a bowl and add sweet sand. Using a whisk, mix the ingredients together into a fluffy foam.

Place dark chocolate pieces into a mixture of eggs, sugar, butter, cocoa and coffee. Mix all ingredients with a spoon.

Mix wheat flour with baking powder, sift through a sieve and mix in small portions into a bowl with the butter-egg mixture.

Using a spatula, mix the thick, homogeneous muffin dough with chocolate pieces.

Take a muffin pan. Grease the inside of the molds with butter and sprinkle with flour or place in each paper muffin tin. Place the finished dough into each container - a heaping tablespoon. It should fill the mold slightly more than halfway.

Bake chocolate muffins in an oven preheated to 180 0 C for 25 minutes. A delicious cap with pieces of melted chocolate is created on the surface of the finished baked goods.

Place the finished products out of the mold onto a plate and serve while still warm.
