(recipe souce : adapted from SSB with minor changes)

*makes 12-14 muffins

 250g plain flour

2 tsp baking powder

 1/2 tsp baking soda

 2 tbsp good quality cocoa powder

 170g caster sugar

 150g chocolate chips (save 1/4 of the chips for sprinkling, i use twist white choc and chocolate chips)

 200ml milk

 80ml vegetable oil

 1 large egg

 1 tsp pure vanilla extract

Method

 1. Preheat the oven to 200 deg C (next time I will reduce to 180-190c).

 2. Put the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cocoa, sugar, and 3/4 of the chocolate chips into a large bowl and mix well.

 3. Pour all the liquid ingredients into a measuring jug and mix well.

 4. Mix the dry and wet ingredients together with slow and gentle strokes. Stop stirring once the last traces of flour disappear. Do not overmix. A lumpy batter will ensure the muffins stay moist and fluffy.

 5. Spoon the batter into paper muffin cases.

 6. Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 chocolate chips on top and bake for 20 minutes or until the muffins are dark, risen and springy.
