- 1 tsp baking soda
- 1/2 cup 90g salted butter, cubed and softened at room temperature*
- 3/4 cup coconut sugar

Instructions

Preheat oven to 180ºC (356ºF). Line a 12-hole regular sized muffin pan with muffin liners. Set aside.

In a small mixing bowl, combine flour, cocoa powder, baking powder and baking soda, mix well and set aside.

In a large mixing bowl, add butter. Take a hand mixer or a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, lightly beat the butter for a few seconds just to break it down. Add coconut sugar and beat on high for 1 minute until well combined and fluffy.

-
Add dry flour mixture into creamed mixture. Beat until just combined.

Pour in milk, beat until milk has combined and mixture forms a soft batter, ensuring not to over-mix.
-
Gently fold through first measurement of chopped chocolate.
-
Spoon batter evenly amongst liners, filling each one just below the top edge.
-
Sprinkle each muffin with second measurement of chopped chocolate.
-
Bake for 15-20 minutes or until a skewer inserted into the middle comes out clean.
-
Cool in pan for 5 minutes.
-
Remove and transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Enjoy!
