Chocolate Muffins
- In a large bowl, add the butter and sugar. Using a hand mixer, beat on medium until creamed.
- Add the egg, yogurt, milk, coffee and vanilla. Beat until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, add in the flour, cocoa powder, baking soda and salt. Whisk until combined.
- Beat the dry ingredients into the wet on low speed. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and beat in any remaining flour or unmixed bits. The batter will be very thick.
- Work in ½ of your chocolate chips.
- Using a second piping bag or large storage bag, scoop the muffin batter in. Cut the tip or corner off to create a hole slightly smaller than a nickel.
- Pipe a ring around the bottom of the paper liner.
- Cut a small hole in the tip or corner of the bag of cheesecake batter. The hole should be big enough to squeeze mini chocolate chips through.
- Pipe about 2 tablespoons of cheesecake batter on top of the ring of chocolate muffin batter.
- Cover the top of the cheesecake batter with another more chocolate muffin batter, filling the liners about ¾ full.
- Sprinkle the top with more mini chocolate chips.
- Place the muffin pans in the preheated oven and bake for 5 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees and bake for an additional 13 to 15 minutes or until done. Insert a toothpick in the center of the muffins and if it comes out clean or with moist crumbs, they’re done. Batter always means bake longer.
- Let cool in the muffin pans.
- Store in an airtight container in the fridge.
Notes
- The muffins will release better from the liners when cooled completely
- Storage: Place the muffins in an airtight container or a storage bag in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
- Freeze: Place the cooled muffins in a freezer-safe container or freezer bag. Place in the freezer for up to 3 months and can be eaten partially frozen or thawed in the refrigerator overnight.
