If you are a chocoholic muffin mad kiddo, then this is for you! Perfect warm after school, or morning tea, or cue the ice cream for a quick dessert.

Muffins are the poor cousins of cupcakes in a way. Cupcakes are sweet, often frosted, and have a lighter, cake-like texture, commonly made with butter and sugar. Muffins, on the other hand, are denser, less sweet, sometimes savory, and typically made with oil or melted butter, emphasising ingredients like fruits or nuts (or in this case, chocolate!)

Essentially, cupcakes are miniature cakes, while muffins are a type of quick bread. But easier and quicker to make so a great alternative if you are in a hurry for a quickie snack for lunches or a dessert after dinner. I often made muffins for breakfast, back when I was bribing my kids to get ready for school as fast as they could! The wafting fragrance of a cooking muffin is hard to ignore and gets them out of bed every time!
