Ingredients
- 240 g (2 cups, 8.5 oz) all-purpose flour
- 40 g (1/2 cup or 1.4 oz) cocoa powder
- 150 g (3/4 cup or 5.3 oz) granulated sugar
- 1.5 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 240 ml (1 cup or 8.6 oz) milk
- 1 large egg
- 60 g (1/4 cup or 2.1 oz) vegetable oil
- 60 g (4 tbsp or 2.1 oz) butter, melted
- 1/2 tsp vanilla essence
- 100 g (1/3 cup or 3.5 oz) Nutella
- 80 g (1/2 cup or 2.8 oz) dark chocolate, chopped
Instructions
Preheat Your Oven
Start by preheating your oven to 180°C (350°F) and prepare a muffin tin by lining it with muffin liners or greasing it lightly.
Mix Dry Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt until thoroughly combined.
Combine Wet Ingredients
In another bowl, mix the milk, egg, vegetable oil, melted butter, and vanilla essence. Whisk until smooth and fully blended.
Combine Mixtures
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are fine!
Add Chocolate and Nutella
Gently fold in the chopped dark chocolate. Reserve a small spoonful of Nutella to swirl on top later, and mix the remaining Nutella into the batter.
Fill Muffin Tins
Evenly distribute the muffin batter into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup about 2/3 full. Drop a spoonful of reserved Nutella on top of each muffin and swirl gently with a toothpick or knife for a decorative touch.
Bake
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let them cool in the tin for a few minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
Conclusion
These double chocolate muffins are sure to impress friends and family alike! With their rich flavor and moist texture, there’s no need for store-bought desserts anymore.
