This recipe goes back to when my son was small and that is quite a while back, and I still make them, these are moist and rich no need for an electric mixer for this recipe it's all mixed with a wooden spoon, I have even added in chopped walnuts or mini chocolate chips, my Kittencal's Chocolate Frosting/Icing works great with these :) Ingredients:
3/4 cup good quality baking cocoa |
1 teaspoon baking powder (heaping) |
3/4 cup butter or 3/4 cup margarine, melted |
1/2 cup boiling water |
1 tablespoon vanilla |
1 1/4 cups sugar (or to taste) |
2 eggs |
1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/2 cup mini chocolate chip (optional) |
1/2 cup walnuts (optional) |
Directions:
1. Set oven to 350°F.
2. Line 12 muffin tins with paper liners.
3. In a medium bowl combine cocoa and baking powder; mix to combine.
4. Add in boiling water; mix well with a wooden spoon to combine.
5. Add in the melted butter and vanilla; mix well.
6. Add in the sugar, mix well with a wooden spoon.
7. Stir in eggs with a wooden spoon; mix until combined.
8. Mix the flour with salt; add in the chocolate mixture; mix well to combine (batter will be a bit on the thin side).
9. Add/mix in mini chocolate chips or walnuts (or 1 cup of both!).
10. Using an ice cream scoop fill each of the muffin tins almost to the top.
11. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until muffins are done, don't over bake! (might take a little longer, depending on how full the muffin tins are with the batter).
12. Cool, drizzle glaze over or frost with buttercream frosting.
