Ingredients:
- 2 large eggs
- 100g granulated sugar
- 100ml vegetable oil
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 100g plain yogurt
- 150g all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder (8g)
- A pinch of salt
- 4 tablespoons chocolate spread (place in the freezer for 30 minutes)
- Chocolate chips (amount to your liking)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Muffin Batter:
- Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a muffin tin with paper liners or grease with non-stick spray.
- In a large bowl, beat the eggs and sugar together until light and fluffy.
- Add the vegetable oil, vanilla extract, and yogurt, mixing until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing just until combined. Be careful not to overmix.
- Fold in the chocolate chips.
- Assemble the Muffins:
- Spoon a small amount of batter into each muffin liner, filling about 1/3 of the way.
- Place a teaspoon of the frozen chocolate spread in the center of each muffin.
- Top with more batter, filling each muffin liner to about 3/4 full. Sprinkle a few extra chocolate chips on top if desired.
- Bake:
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 15 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the muffin (avoiding the chocolate center) comes out clean.
- Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
