    • ½ cup cocoa powder
    • ½ cup light brown sugar

    • ¾ tsp baking powder
    • ½ tsp baking soda

    Chocolate Ganache:

Instructions

Muffins:

  1. Preheat oven to 355℉ (180℃). Line a muffin pan with muffin liners.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together flour, cocoa powder, sugars, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and coffee powder. Sift to remove lumps.
  3. In another bowl, whisk together the egg, oil, milk, yogurt, and vanilla extract.
  4. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined (do not overmix).
  5. Fold in chocolate chunks using a spatula.
  6. Scoop the batter into the muffin liners, filling them to the top. Sprinkle extra chocolate chunks on top.
  7. Bake for 20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out mostly clean. Let muffins cool.

Chocolate Ganache:

 

  1. Heat heavy cream until hot (but not boiling). Pour over dark chocolate.
  2. Let sit for 2-3 minutes, then stir until smooth.
  3. Drizzle ganache over muffins once they have cooled.

Notes

  • For extra richness, feel free to add a tablespoon of brewed coffee to enhance the coffee flavor.
  • These muffins can be stored in an airtight container for up to 3 days, but they are best enjoyed fresh.

 

  • If you prefer a less sweet muffin, you can reduce the sugar by ¼ cup.
