Ingredients
- 250 g of flour
- 1 natural yogurt
- 2 eggs
- 100 g of butter melted
- 100 g of powdered sugar
- 100 g of chocolate chips
- 12 teaspoons of chocolate spread
- 10 cl of milk
- 1 tablespoon of vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 pinch of salt
Instructions
- Prep the Spread: Start by filling the indentations of an ice cube mold with chocolate spread. Pop it into the freezer for at least one hour before you start baking.
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). This ensures even baking.
- Melt the Butter: Melt the butter in the microwave or in a bain-marie and let it cool down.
- Mix Wet Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and powdered sugar until fluffy. Gradually add the warm melted butter and mix well.
- Combine Yogurt and Milk: In a separate bowl, mix the yogurt and milk together. Pour this mixture into the egg mixture, stirring as you go.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: Sift in the flour, baking powder, and salt to the wet mix, and stir vigorously. Then, fold in the chocolate chips and add the vanilla extract until fully combined.
- Fill the Muffin Molds: Pour the batter into muffin molds, filling each cavity about 3/4 full. Gently place a square of frozen chocolate spread in the center of each muffin.
- Bake & Cool: Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. Let cool before unmolding them.
