Black Forest Muffins

Now if you have finished drooling at that lets talk :)…. last week I made black forest muffins and though I have many many many recipes to be posted here and some reviews too I knew this had to be done the first. It came out deliciously yummmm. I mean I think the combination of cherries and dark chocolate is a match made in heaven and nothing can ever go wrong when you combine them. I made this for a boy’s only trip the hubby was going and not just they love it, Ojas put up a fight with N saying these are yumm muffins and you can’t take them. These are mine 🙂 All this certainly makes the effort worth if u ask me not that they are difficult to make anyways

Recipe : Black Forest Muffins (adapted from The Muffin Bible)

Makes about 18 medium sized muffins

What I used

• 2 eggs
• 150gm dark chocolate
• 1 cup water
• 1/3 cup butter softened
• 1 cup whole wheat flour
• 1 cup all purpose flour
• 2 tsp baking powder
• 1 tbsp cocoa powder
• 1/2 cup caster sugar
• 1 cup tinned cherries

How I made it

• Bring the water to boil and melt the chopped dark chocolate in it.
• Mix this with the rest of the ingredients apart from cherries till just mixed
• Fold in cherries.
• Pour in muffins lined with paper cups or greased and dusted
• Bake in a pre heated oven at 180C for about 20 minutes till the skewer comes out clean

the muffin is very light and spongy and totally sinful… enjoy till it lasts 🙂

And I am sending this to Champa’s Bake – Off
