Moist Chocolate Muffins image

A simple and yummy way to satisfy your chocolate thirst! Kinda like a brownie but lighter and not as rich. It's great for breakfast or anytime you feel like :) To lower the fat content, opt for light margarine instead of butter!

Time 45m

Yield 12 Muffins, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 cups plain unbleached flour or 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup whole wheat flour (just to add a bit fiber)
3/4 cup melted butter or 3/4 cup margarine
1 (150 ml) container chocolate yogurt
3 tablespoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup sugar
2 ounces unsweetened chocolate (I use Hershey's)
1/4 cup cocoa
3 medium egg whites
1 teaspoon vanilla

Steps:

  • Remember to preheat oven to 175 degrees Celcius before starting.
  • In a large/medium bowl mix in the dry ingredients (flour, baking powder, cocoa powder, and salt).
  • Melt the butter/margarine with the 2 ounces of chocolate in the microwave in another bowl.
  • Should take around 30-40 seconds depending on the type of microwave.
  • (Check after 30 seconds and add on the time if not melted).
  • When melted, take out the bowl and slowly (becareful to not spill the liquid) blend together the chocolate and butter/margarine until well mixed.
  • Make sure no chocolate is left stuck at the bottom of the bowl.
  • Set aside and let it cool for 1 minute.
  • When cooled, combine the chocolate yogurt into the same bowl and carefully mix them together until the liquid is quick thick.
  • If the bowl is not large enough, transfer this mixture to a slight bigger one.
  • Afterwards, add in the sugar and mix well.
  • Pour this wet mixture into the flour mixture and slowly blend the two together.
  • Do not over mix.
  • The result should be quick sticky and thick.
  • Leave it aside.
  • Now in separate bowl, beat the egg whites until it forms soft peaks.
  • Fold the egg whites into the flour's thick mixture until well blended.
  • But again, don't overmix to let the air escape from the mixture.
  • Spoon batter equally into the muffin tins (12).
  • Bake for around 20 minutes.
  • Check the readiness by poking a toothpick into a muffin nearest you.
  • If the center comes out clean then it's done.
  • If not, bake for another 5-10 minutes.

I can't wait to try these muffins with different mix-ins, like nuts, berries, or chocolate chips.

These muffins freeze well, so I often make a double batch and freeze half for later.

Overall, these muffins were good, but not great. I'll probably try a different recipe next time.

These muffins were a bit too dense for my taste. I think I overmixed the batter.

I thought these muffins were too sweet. I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

Meh, these muffins were just okay. They were a little dry and the chocolate flavor was lacking.

These muffins turned out amazing! They're so moist and chocolatey, with a perfect crumb. I love the addition of coffee, it really enhances the chocolate flavor. I'll definitely be making these again!
