Time 20m

Yield 12 muffins

Number Of Ingredients 12

nonstick cooking spray or paper baking cup
1 cup milk (whole, low fat, or non fat)
3/4 cup instant malted milk powder
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 ounces unsweetened chocolate, chopped
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
2 large eggs, at room temperature
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Position the rack in the center of the oven and preheat the oven to 400°F
  • To prepare the muffin pans, spray the holes and the rims around them with the nonstick spray or line the holes with the paper muffin cups. If using silicone pans, spray as directed, and then set them on a cookie sheet.
  • Whisk the milk and malted milk powder in a small bowl until well mixed and the powder has dissolved. Let stand at room temperature for 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, whisk the flour, baking soda, baking powder and salt in a medium bowl until well mixed. Set aside.
  • Place the chocolate and butter in the top of a double boiler set over simmering water. If you don't have a double boiler, place them in a bowl the fits snugly over a small pot of simmering water. Stir constantly until half the butter and chocolate mixture is melted. Remove the top of the double boiler or the bowl from the pot; then continue stirring, away from the heat, until the butter and chocolate are completely smooth. Cool for 5 minutes.
  • In a large bowl, whisk the eggs until lightly beaten, then pour in the sugar and continue whisking until the mixture is thick and pale yellow, about 3 minutes. Stir in the the vanilla, then the prepared malted milk mixture. Pour in the cooled chocolate mixture in a slow, steady stream, whisking all the while. Finally, using a wooden spoon, stir in the flour mixture, just until moistened.
  • Fill the prepared pans three quarters full. Use additional greased pans or small, oven-safe, greased ramekins for any leftover batter. Or save for a second baking. Bake for 20 minutes, or until the muffins have cracked, rounded tops, and a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean.
  • Set the pan on a wire rack to cool for 10 minutes. Gently rock each muffin back and forth to release it. Remove them from the pan and let cool on the rack for 5 more minutes. (If storing or freezing, cool completely) Seal in an airtight container or freezer proof bags. Muffins will stay fresh up to 24 hours at room temperature or up to 2 months in the freezer.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     dessert

Time 1h20m

Yield 24 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

2/3 cup sugar
1 teaspoon light corn syrup
3 cups heavy cream
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
7 ounces milk chocolate, chopped
4 ounces bittersweet chocolate, chopped
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon fine salt
1 cup malted milk powder (such as Carnation)
3/4 cup Dutch-process cocoa powder
1 1/3 cups sugar
1 stick unsalted butter, at room temperature
4 large eggs, at room temperature
1 3/4 cups half-and-half
1 1/2 cups crispy rice cereal

Steps:

  • Make the frosting: Sprinkle the sugar evenly in a large skillet and add the corn syrup. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring once or twice. Continue to boil, swirling the pan but not stirring, until the caramel is amber. Carefully pour in the heavy cream (it can splatter) and add the butter. Simmer, whisking constantly, until the caramel is smooth, about 2 minutes.
  • Combine both chocolates and the salt in a medium heatproof bowl. Pour the hot caramel over the chocolate and let stand until melted, about 5 minutes. Whisk until smooth and shiny, then cover and refrigerate until set, at least 4 hours or overnight. (The frosting can be made up to 2 days ahead.)
  • Make the cupcakes: Position a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 375 degrees F. Line two 12-cup muffin pans with paper liners. Whisk the flour, baking powder and salt in a bowl. Sift the malted milk and cocoa powders into another bowl.
  • Beat the sugar and butter in a third bowl with a mixer until light and fluffy, about 7 minutes. Add the malted milk powder mixture and beat until combined. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. With the mixer on low speed, add the flour mixture in three parts, alternating with the half-and-half in two parts, beginning and ending with flour.
  • Divide the batter evenly among the prepared cups, filling each about three-quarters of the way. Bake until a toothpick inserted into a cupcake comes out clean, 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool in the pans 10 minutes, then transfer the cupcakes to racks to cool completely.
  • Beat the chilled frosting with a mixer or whisk until thick, about 2 minutes, but don't overwhip. Spread on the cupcakes or transfer to a pastry bag with a star tip and pipe on top. Refrigerate until ready to serve, then sprinkle with the cereal.

MOIST CHOCOLATE MUFFINS



Moist Chocolate Muffins image

A simple and yummy way to satisfy your chocolate thirst! Kinda like a brownie but lighter and not as rich. It's great for breakfast or anytime you feel like :) To lower the fat content, opt for light margarine instead of butter!

Provided by koko-girl

Categories     Quick Breads

Time 45m

Yield 12 Muffins, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 cups plain unbleached flour or 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup whole wheat flour (just to add a bit fiber)
3/4 cup melted butter or 3/4 cup margarine
1 (150 ml) container chocolate yogurt
3 tablespoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup sugar
2 ounces unsweetened chocolate (I use Hershey's)
1/4 cup cocoa
3 medium egg whites
1 teaspoon vanilla

Steps:

  • Remember to preheat oven to 175 degrees Celcius before starting.
  • In a large/medium bowl mix in the dry ingredients (flour, baking powder, cocoa powder, and salt).
  • Melt the butter/margarine with the 2 ounces of chocolate in the microwave in another bowl.
  • Should take around 30-40 seconds depending on the type of microwave.
  • (Check after 30 seconds and add on the time if not melted).
  • When melted, take out the bowl and slowly (becareful to not spill the liquid) blend together the chocolate and butter/margarine until well mixed.
  • Make sure no chocolate is left stuck at the bottom of the bowl.
  • Set aside and let it cool for 1 minute.
  • When cooled, combine the chocolate yogurt into the same bowl and carefully mix them together until the liquid is quick thick.
  • If the bowl is not large enough, transfer this mixture to a slight bigger one.
  • Afterwards, add in the sugar and mix well.
  • Pour this wet mixture into the flour mixture and slowly blend the two together.
  • Do not over mix.
  • The result should be quick sticky and thick.
  • Leave it aside.
  • Now in separate bowl, beat the egg whites until it forms soft peaks.
  • Fold the egg whites into the flour's thick mixture until well blended.
  • But again, don't overmix to let the air escape from the mixture.
  • Spoon batter equally into the muffin tins (12).
  • Bake for around 20 minutes.
  • Check the readiness by poking a toothpick into a muffin nearest you.
  • If the center comes out clean then it's done.
  • If not, bake for another 5-10 minutes.

DOUBLE-CHOCOLATE MUFFINS



Double-Chocolate Muffins image

For a better-for-you treat, try these extra-chocolatey muffins. Avocado stands in for some of the oil in the recipe, providing healthy fat and a super-tender crumb. Whole-wheat flour brings extra fiber and makes them more filling.

Provided by Lauryn Tyrell

Time 35m

Yield Makes 10

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/4 cup mashed ripe avocado
1/4 cup safflower or avocado oil
1/4 cup pure maple syrup
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt (we use Diamond Crystal)
1/2 cup milk
2 tablespoons Dutch-process cocoa powder
1 cup spelt or whole-wheat flour
1/2 cup bittersweet-chocolate chips, plus more for topping
Sanding sugar, for topping

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F and line 10 muffin cups with paper liners. In a large bowl, whisk together avocado, oil, maple syrup, and brown sugar. Whisk in egg, vanilla, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and milk.
  • Whisk in cocoa powder, then stir in flour until combined. Fold in chocolate chips. Divide among cups and bake 10 minutes. Sprinkle with a few more chocolate chips and sanding sugar; return to oven and bake until a tester inserted in centers comes out clean, 8 to 10 minutes more. Let cool and serve, or store, covered, at room temperature up to 3 days.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh ingredients will yield the best-tasting and most flavorful muffins.
  • Measure your ingredients accurately: This is especially important for baking, as even a small difference in the amount of an ingredient can affect the outcome of the recipe.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can make the muffins tough and dry. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Fill the muffin tins to the top: This will help the muffins rise evenly.
  • Bake the muffins in a preheated oven: This will help to ensure that they bake evenly.
  • Don't overbake the muffins: Overbaking the muffins can make them dry and crumbly. Insert a toothpick into the center of a muffin; if it comes out clean, the muffins are done.
  • Let the muffins cool completely before frosting them: This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.

Conclusion:

Chocolate malted muffins are a simple yet delicious treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With their rich chocolate flavor and fluffy texture, these muffins are sure to be a hit. So next time you're looking for a sweet snack, give these chocolate malted muffins a try.
