Chocolate muffins stuffed with chocolate. Chocolate muffins: how to cook them correctly

The magic of chocolate extends to our entire family, we adore any baked goods with the addition of chocolate. Muffins are a separate pleasure, because they are easy to prepare: without a mixer, without dancing with a tambourine near the oven - stir, pour into molds and after 20 minutes a delicious dessert is ready for tea. And today we will cook chocolate with the addition of banana. Aromatic, tasty, not boring. Anyone with a chocolate addiction save the recipe and try it soon.

I even have in my piggy bank, they will fit as a hearty snack on the road.

Ingredients: (this amount makes 20 pieces)

  • Cocoa powder - 50 g
  • Flour - 330 g
  • Baking powder - 1 tbsp. l.
  • Soda - 1/2 tsp.
  • Sugar - 180 g
  • Butter - 100 g
  • Low-fat sour cream 15% (or natural yogurt) - 250 g
  • Eggs - 2 pieces (small) or one large
  • Banana - 1 piece
  • Chopped chocolate - 100 g (thermostable chocolate drops can be used)

How to make chocolate muffins (step by step recipe with photo)

First, combine all dry ingredients in a large, convenient bowl: flour (330 g), quality cocoa powder (50 g), baking powder (1 tablespoon), baking soda (1/2 tsp) and granulated sugar (180 g) ...

Now mix all the ingredients with a mixer at the lowest speed or with a whisk.

In another cup, knead one large banana or two medium-sized ones. I knead with a fork until it is almost liquid, you can cut into pieces and crank the banana in a blender. If you don't get a smooth mixture, don't worry, it will still work.

Now we drive two eggs into a bowl.

Heat the butter until liquid in a microwave oven or in a saucepan on the stove. Cool slightly so that it is not hot by the time it is added to the dough.

Add yogurt (250 g) to the liquid ingredients, as well as chopped chocolate. You can add finely crushed nuts, dried cherries and any other additives to this dough. You don't have to add anything.

Mix and combine with dry ingredients. Stir again until smooth.

It turns out a thick dough, which must be distributed in paper capsules for muffins. If you will be using silicone molds, you can do without paper liners.

Attention! Do not fill in the forms completely, the dough should occupy 3/4 of the form volume.

It is convenient to use a pastry bag or an ice cream spoon for settling (this is how an equal amount of dough gets into the molds and they turn out to be even and the same in size). If you will spread the dough with a regular spoon, choose with the sharpest spout as possible so that the dough hits the target.

We preheat the oven to 180 C. We send the muffins to bake for 17-20 minutes. We check the readiness of the baking with a wooden toothpick, which must be inserted deep into the muffin and pulled out. If there are no wet lumps of dough on the toothpick, the muffins are ready.

For baking we use the "Top-Bottom" mode.

Keep the baked muffins in tins for 4-5 minutes, and then remove them on the wire rack and let them cool completely.

The texture of the muffins is delicious! Loose, moist, tender. The photo below shows a cut of the choco muffin.

Chocolate muffins with peanut butter

In this recipe, muffins are denser in structure, but no less tasty. I usually cook them with peanut butter, but you can use any nut butter, the most important thing is to choose thicker so that the filling does not fall to the bottom.

So, to make muffins we need:

  • Sugar - 180 g
  • Eggs - 3 large size CO
  • Flour - 100 g
  • Cocoa powder - 80 g
  • Butter - 160 g
  • Nut butter to taste

How to make chocolate nut butter muffins

Break the eggs into a bowl and stir with a mixer.

Now add granulated sugar (very tasty if you use brown). Can be made on the basis of white sugar or combined into a mixture of several varieties.

Now beat the mixture thoroughly until a fluffy light state (usually it increases in volume by 2-3 times.) I turn on the medium speed of the mixer.

Sift dry ingredients into the dough: flour (100 g), cocoa powder (80 g).

Alkalized cocoa is excellent for baking, this powder has a rich taste and color, noticeably more aromatic and tastier in baking.

We continue to work as a mixer.

Then melt the butter (160 g) in a saucepan or microwave. Add butter in a thin stream along the side of the bowl.

Stir the dough again until smooth.

Now you need to transfer the dough into a pastry bag (although you can lay it out in tins and using a regular spoon).

For baking muffins, use any form: silicone, small bun tins, etc.

Now you need to pour the dough into each mold 1/2 of the volume, add the filling, then fill again with the dough.

My homemade peanut butter has a plasticine texture, so I easily sculpted small balls (the size of a large hazelnut) out of it. Cover the top with chocolate dough again.

In total, the mold should be 3/4 full. Although there is no baking powder in the dough, the muffins will rise slightly in the oven.

We bake portioned desserts in a well preheated oven for 15-20 minutes. We use a temperature of 180-190 C, the "Top-bottom" mode.

We check the readiness with a wooden stick (it should come out of the dough dry) or by simply pressing the muffin surface - it should spring under the fingertip.

Do not keep the finished muffins in the molds for too long to make them as juicy as possible. If you don't plan on serving them right now, you can wrap each dessert in plastic wrap and put them in the refrigerator. This will make them even tastier!

Recipe 9: simple muffins with chocolate chunks

  • Oil - 150 g
  • 1 and ½ st. flour (about 200 g)
  • 75 g sugar
  • 2 chicken eggs
  • 2 tbsp cocoa
  • Baking powder - 2 tsp
  • Pieces of dark chocolate

Chocolate muffins require the following products: flour, butter, eggs, sugar, cocoa and chocolate.

Let's start making the dough. Butter must be melted in full to a liquid state in any convenient way (on the stove, in the microwave). Drain the melted butter into a bowl and add granulated sugar there. You can add some vanilla sugar or vanillin if you like.

Drive in two raw chicken eggs to the butter with sugar and beat everything with a whisk or mixer.

Before using the flour for making the dough, it is imperative to mix it with a baking powder and sift everything together (to saturate with air and avoid debris or lumps from entering the dessert). Little by little, add flour to the rest of the ingredients and begin to gently knead.

Pour cocoa powder into a bowl.

The last step in preparing the dough is the final mixing. Here you need to achieve the disappearance of any lumps and the formation of a homogeneous thick mass of a pleasant chocolate color. The finished mass should be spread out with a spoon into molds (paper, silicone or metal) for about two-thirds of the volume and a small piece of chocolate should be inserted on top. For baking, heat the oven to 180 degrees. Cooking time is about 25 minutes.

Dessert is ready! You can decorate them with a sprig of mint, sprinkle with powdered sugar.

Recipe 10: delicious chocolate muffins with banana

There is a time to please your family with delicious, homemade pastries, then be sure to make banana-chocolate muffins. Their unique taste, delicate banana dough combined with delectable chocolate, will be appreciated not only by those with a sweet tooth, but also by those who are indifferent to sweets. At the same time, any hostess can cook them and it will take very little time.

  • Flour 225 grams
  • Cocoa 3 tablespoons
  • Bananas 3 pieces
  • Chicken eggs 2 pieces
  • Sugar 100 grams or to taste
  • Vegetable oil 125 milliliters
  • Soda 1 teaspoon

Peel the bananas and put them on a plate.

We arm ourselves with a fork or potato grinder and mash the banana pulp in mashed potatoes.

We wash the eggs under hot running water and break them into a separate plate. Pour sugar and vegetable oil, beat with a whisk until smooth. Then pour it into mashed bananas and mix everything thoroughly with a tablespoon.

Next, pour the required amount of flour, cocoa and soda into a sieve. Sift into a wide, comfortable bowl and stir. It is necessary to sift in order to get rid of lumps, as well as enrich everything with oxygen, because this way the baking will turn out to be even more airy and tender.

So, pour the sweet banana mass into the flour and whisk or beat everything thoroughly using a mixer. The batter should be uniform in color and free of lumps.

We carefully coat the baking dish with butter or vegetable oil or, as in our case, lay out paper tins. Then we spread the prepared dough with a tablespoon, filling the molds by about 2/3, because our dough will rise slightly. And you can move on to baking.

Preheat the oven to 220 degrees Celsius, and only after that, set the mold in the oven. We bake muffins until fully cooked for 15 - 20 minutes. During this time, they should rise and become covered with a beautiful crust. And readiness can be checked with a toothpick, skewer or fork. If, when sticking a skewer, a trace of raw dough remains on it, then the baking is not yet ready, and if it is dry, then boldly turn off the oven and take out the mold, helping ourselves with kitchen potholders.

If you add berries to the dough, they should first be slightly rolled in starch so that they do not spread.

If you add dried fruits to the dough, do not forget to soak them first, and then dry them.

If you decide to cook muffins on curd dough, choose non-grainy curd, it is best to take it in briquettes, but it is also advisable to grind it through a sieve at least once.

Spread the dough in a surely oiled pan so that the muffins do not stick and have a neat appetizing appearance.

Muffins are also good because, despite the short shelf life under normal conditions (about three days), they can be prepared for future use - they perfectly retain their taste at low temperatures.

You can take out the muffins at any suitable time; all that remains is to defrost the muffins at room temperature or in the microwave oven at the appropriate setting.

The classic recipe for chocolate muffins is "mashed to the holes" - they are so tasty and easy to prepare. One name is already causing a storm of emotions for those with a sweet tooth. The muffins are slightly moist, moderately sweet, tender and incredibly tasty.

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

Put on fire and bring to homogeneity, stirring occasionally. Bring the mixture to a boil over low heat.

Combine sour cream with chicken egg in a bowl.

Beat by hand.

Pour the creamy chocolate mass into the dry ingredients, stirring constantly.

Then add sour cream and egg.

And mix everything again.

Divide the finished dough into molds. If you use silicone molds or with disposable paper inserts, you do not need to lubricate; otherwise, lubricate with vegetable oil.

Send the form with the dough to the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes at 180-200 degrees, until a dry match.

Readiness can be checked with a wooden splinter - if it is dry - the classic chocolate muffins are ready.

Serve cooled, incredibly tasty, chocolate muffins for tea.

If you wish, you can decorate the muffins with cream, although they taste great without it.
