This is the bonanza of all muffin recipes - chocolate and macadamia nuts all in one muffin. Easy to throw together and tasty enough to serve at a brunch, give as a gift or have on a holiday tray. Ingredients:
1 cup semisweet chocolate morsel |
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour |
2 tablespoons sugar |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
3/4 cup macadamia nuts, chopped |
1/2 cup semisweet chocolate morsel |
3/4 cup low-fat sour cream |
2 eggs |
1/3 cup canola oil |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°F Line 12 muffin cups with liners. 2. Melt the 1 cup of chocolate morsels in microwave and set aside. 3. In a large bowl, combine flour, sugar, baking soda, and salt. Stir in macadamia nuts and the other 1/2 cup chocolate morsels. 4. In a small bowl, combine melted chocolate, sour cream, eggs and oil. 5. Stir chocolate mixture into flour mixture just until moistened (do not over-mix). 6. Spoon into prepared muffin cups, filling about 3/4 full. 7. Bake 18-20 minutes until muffins pass a toothpick test in center. Cool 5 minutes and remove from cups to cool completely on wire rack. |
