Chocolate Honeycomb Muffins Food

CHOCOLATE HONEYCOMB

Steps:

• Butter a 20cm square tin. Mix the sugar and golden syrup in a deep saucepan over a gentle heat until the sugar has melted. Try not to let the mixture bubble until the sugar has completely dissolved.
• Turn up the heat a little and simmer until you have an amber coloured caramel (this won't take long). To test if it's ready, turn off the heat and drop a little into a glass of very cold water. If it forms a hard ball, it's ready. If not, turn the heat back on and cook a little more. Then, as quickly as you can, turn off the heat, tip in the bicarb and beat with a wooden spoon until it's disappeared and the mixture is foaming. Scrape into the tin immediately - be careful, the mixture will be very hot.
• Leave the honeycomb in the tin for 1 hr-1 hr 30 mins until hard (it will continue to bubble).
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Melt the chocolate in a small heatproof bowl over a pan of just simmering water.
• Snap the honeycomb into chunks and dip half of each piece into the chocolate. Drizzle with any remaining chocolate and a pinch of sea salt, if you like. Leave to set in the fridge for 1 hr.

MOIST CHOCOLATE MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease 12 muffin cups or line with paper muffin liners.
• Combine flour, sugar, 3/4 cup chocolate chips, cocoa powder, and baking soda in a large bowl. Whisk egg, yogurt, milk, vanilla, and vegetable oil in another bowl until smooth; pour into chocolate mixture and stir until batter is just blended. Fill prepared muffin cups 3/4 full and sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup chocolate chips.
• Bake in preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 20 minutes. Cool in the pans for 10 minutes before removing to cool completely on a wire rack.

CHOCOLATE CHOCOLATE-CHIP MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Put the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cocoa, sugar, and 3/4 cup of the chocolate chips into a large bowl. Pour all the liquid ingredients into a measuring jug. Mix the dry and wet ingredients together, remembering that a lumpy batter makes the best muffins. Spoon into the prepared muffin cases. Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup chocolate chips on top and then bake for 20 minutes or until the muffins are dark, risen and springy.

CHOCOLATE HONEYCOMB MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 190 degrees Celsius Line 15 muffin tins with paper cups, or grease the bottoms only.
• Sift together the flour and salt into a large bowl. Add the Chocolate chips and Chocolate coated honeycomb and make sure they are evenly spread out in the dry ingredients.
• In a medium sized bowl, mix together the brown sugar, vanilla extract, egg, melted butter and milk.
• Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined.
• Divide batter into prepared muffin tins.
• Bake for about 20 minutes; cool on a wire rack.

CHOCOLATE CHOCOLATE CHIP MUFFINS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Line the muffin tin with paper liners and lightly coat with cooking spray. (This may seem like overkill, but otherwise the muffins will stick.)
• Whisk the flour, cocoa, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a medium bowl. In another medium bowl, lightly whisk the eggs, then whisk in the butter, brown sugar, milk, oil and vanilla.
• Quickly fold the wet ingredients into the dry with a rubber spatula. Just before the batter comes together, fold in the chocolate chips¿don¿t mix the batter too much or the muffins will be tough. Divide the batter among the muffin cups (1/4 cup of batter per muffin). Bake until a tester inserted in the center comes out clean, about 25 minutes. Turn the muffins out of the tins, cool on a rack. Serve slightly warm with jam.
