I’ve given these muffins a spot in the weekly poll several times now, and week after week, they placed second. It’s probably a hint that I shouldn’t bake them, but yesterday I couldn’t help myself. I just love watching Nigella bake these and, as usual, I was craving something chocolaty! Well they tasted simply splendid! For a muffin, they had TONS of flavor! I know Nigella says she doesn’t like the muffins as much the day after, but I actually loved them even more: they were moister and the chocolate flavor became more intense. This recipe is a keeper! Rating: 4 out of 5.Chocolate - Chocolate Chip Muffins recipe: Nigella Lawson - Feast
Ingredients:
- 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- 2 tablespoons best quality cocoa powder
- ¾ cup superfine sugar
- ¾ cup semisweet chocolate chips + ¼ cup for sprinkling
- 1 cup milk
- ⅓ cup + 2 teaspoons vegetable oil
- 1 egg
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Instructions:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Put the flour, baking powder, baking soda, cocoa, sugar, and ¾ cup of the chocolate chips into a large bowl. Pour all the liquid ingredients into a measuring jug. Mix the dry and wet ingredients together, remembering that a lumpy batter makes the best muffins. Spoon into the prepared muffin cases. Sprinkle the remaining ¼ cup chocolate chips on top and then bake for 20 minutes or until the muffins are dark, risen and springy.

Is it bad I make mine from packet mix?....probably!
You've inspired me to give them a go from scratch!
Nigella is great! These look delish!! another recipe down for you!! what's next???
Your skills are far, far beyond what mine will ever be. However, I amy have to give these a try.... I do enjoy the lovely photos of the morsels you create! Thanks for sharing :-)
Oh wow these chocolate muffins look amazingly good :). To answer your question on my blog as well, I live in England,UK. We don't get anything like Froot Loops over here, all we have is Lucky Charms in some specialist stores and they cost £8 a box!!!Its ridiculous, I wish I had some way of getting them. Where are you from?
Anything that's "double chocolate" is good by my standards! I made Martha Stewart's double chocolate cookies for a party last night (except with white choc chunks) and people went crazy. I guess double chocolate does that to you!
I love Nigella. Those look AMAZING!
