DOUBLE CHOCOLATE MUFFINS PREPARATION

Mix until combined, then fold the chocolate chips.6.70 oz all-purpose flour, 1/2 Tbsp baking powder, 4.23 oz granulated sugar, 2.29 oz unsweetened cocoa powder, 1/8 tsp sea salt, 3 eggs, 9.35 oz sour cream, 5.82 oz vegetable oil, 1 tsp vanilla bean paste, 6 oz dark chocolate chips
- Scoop the batter into each well of your Muffin Tray (3/4 full), add the chocolate chunks on top. Refrigerate for 30 minutes. NOTE: This is the secret to have nice tops and for the chocolate not to fall down.2 oz dark chocolate chunks
BAKE!
- Preheat oven to 350F/180C. Take the muffins out of the refrigerator.
- Bake for 12 minutes at 350F/180C. (Every oven heats differently, monitor your Muffins from 10 minutes) It is ready when the toothpick inserted comes out almost clean or with little to no crumbs.
CHOCOLATE GANACHE PREPARATION
- Pour the heavy cream into a microwave safe bowl and bring it just to a boil in microwave, for about 45 seconds. Add the dark chocolate chips and swirl to coat all chips. Allow to sit for 2 minutes, then stir. Transfer to a pipping bag and snip off the tip. Set aside.2.82 oz heavy cream, 4 oz dark chocolate chips
- Once your Olympic Chocolate Muffins are out of the oven, let them cool down for about 10 minutes before demolding them onto your cooling rack. Then use the back of a rounded spatula to poke a hole 1/2 deep and fill it with the chocolate ganache. Enjoy! Big Congratulations to all our Olympians, their Coaches, Family, support system and the city of Paris for hosting it!
- N.B. These muffins are best enjoyed the day of. However, you can store them at room temperature up to 3 days.
