Description

Make rich Double Chocolate Espresso Muffins. You get a moist, flavorful treat with coffee and chocolate.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup cocoa powder
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup brewed espresso, cooled
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup dark chocolate chips

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners or grease the cups.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
  3. In a separate bowl, whisk the cooled espresso, milk, vegetable oil, egg, and vanilla.
  4. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Fold in the dark chocolate chips.
  5. Divide the batter among the prepared muffin cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
  6. Bake for 18–20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
  7. Let the muffins cool in the tin for 5–10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

  • Use Dutch-process cocoa for a darker flavor.
  • Use strong-brewed espresso.
  • Use room temperature milk and eggs for better mixing.
  • Use 60–70% cocoa chocolate chips for richness.
