This recipe is an old-time favorite that I've modified over the years depending on whether I served them for breakfast, a snack or as dessert. I love chocolate in any form, and these muffins pair it with coconut for a yummy result. -Carol Wilson, Rio Rancho, New Mexico
Ingredients:
2 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour
1/2 cup sugar
3 tablespoons baking cocoa
3 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
1 egg
1/3 cup canola oil
1-1/4 cups flaked coconut, divided
1/4 cup sweetened condensed milk
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, cocoa, baking powder and salt. Combine the milk, egg and oil. Stir into dry ingredients just until moistened.
2. Spoon 2 tablespoonfuls into 12 greased or paper-lined muffin cups. Combine 1 cup coconut, condensed milk and extract; place 2 teaspoonfuls in the center of each cup (do not spread). Top with remaining batter; sprinkle with remaining coconut.
3. Bake at 400° for 20-22 minutes or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean. Cool for 5 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack. Serve warm. Yield: 1 dozen.
