Time 30m

Yield 12 muffins, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

250 g butter, roughly chopped
1 1/2 cups caster sugar
1 1/4 cups plain flour
1/8 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 cup dark cocoa
4 eggs
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
12 pieces chocolate squares (optional)

Steps:

Pre-heat oven to 180c (fan forced) and lightly grease a muffin tray.
Place butter and sugar into a microwave safe container and microwave for 3 minutes. Stir throughout (but don't expect the sugar to dissolve, it won't).
Meanwhile sift flour, baking powder and cocoa into a bowl. Make a well in the centre and add the eggs and vanilla.
Pour in the butter mixture and gently mix with a whisk until well combined. Don't over mix. It will be ready it starts to come away from the sides of the bowl.
Spoon the mixture into the muffin tray, filling to the top.
Place a piece of your favourite eating chocolate in the centre of each muffin.
Bake on centre or lower shelf of oven for 20-22 minutes until just firm. Allow to cool for 10 minutes before removing from muffin tray.
Enjoy! These can be served at room temperature,but are even better served warm with ice cream or whipped cream.
